1994 Honda 300 Fourtrax - No Fire

[Sha3529]

I was riding a couple of days ago and the bike just quit running. Was running great before. it is not getting fire. I changed the plug and still no fire. I used the service manual to trouble shoot the ignition system. Every test passed accept the continuity test on the Y/W and G wires that go to the CDI. It says that it should not have continuity and it does. However I do not see anything in the manual about what should be changed when this test is done and failed. Any suggestions?

check the kill switch or dirty ? does the neutral light come on from the safety switch ? pulse generator ? did you check the stator resistance ?

I bypassed the kill switch to verify that it was not the problem. Neutral light comes on, I did every test the service manual tells me to perform. The only test that fails is the test on the AC sensor line. I'm not even sure what the AC sensor is. I just conducted the continuity test as per the service manual. Could the CDI box just go out completely while riding the bike?

it could, do you have a buddy with the same bike you could switch out units? be a shame to spend big bucks on a cdi if thats not the problem though ...
