    Love the intelligent banter above on CDI's.  For a simpleton like me, I'll distill it down:  If everything else tests good, it's a bad CDI.  There's no at home test for an average DIY guy like me to conclusively test a CDI....so all things ruled out, it only leaves one option. :)

    Occam's Razor, if you will.

    Great deduction Mark. If a DYI doesn't have the proper test equipment, then rule out everything on both sides of cdi.

    Main point, resistance testing is not conclusive for several reasons when testing a CDI.

    End result,  if the proper testing is not performed on either side of the CDI, then you wasted your money on new CDI and the initial problem continues. 

  2. Markin has made a legitimate point, resistance testing is NOT 100 percent accurate test for a CDI for several reasons. Have you tried disconnecting the wire going to kill switch before replacing CDI?

    Have you tested for continuity between ground pin and the other pins?
