Have you checked all terminals to make sure they are clean and tight. I used to have a headlight light problem that would only cut out when it was on for awhile. Terminal would heat up and break the connection. Sent from my iPhone > On Apr 20, 2016, at 8:03 PM, Joel Greaves wrote: > > Sho

Ok so I have now run it and it misfires When hot and misfiring when I measure the output of the CDI at the box I get 5v across the b&w and yellow but only 1.2v across the b&w and blue. Blue fires the coil on 1&4 and yellow the coil on 2&3. 2&3 are not running at this time. The same voltages exis

Re: [Nighthawk Lovers] Re: Misfire when hot 84 650

I started unwrapping the harness and got to the upper connector. Realized I had another upper connector so I swapped that part first. I'm going to run it out tonight and see if it's the top section or if I need to change out the wire in the main harness. Thanks again as always. Joel -- You r

Re: [Nighthawk Lovers] Re: Misfire when hot 84 650

The black/white wire is your positive voltage. The blue and yellow are your ground driver from the CDI. So if you have a higher voltage on the coil that is misfiring I'd agree and say high resistance in the yellow wire for coil 2&3 to the CDI. Maybe the connector is dirty? Sent from my iPhon

Swap it on both ends, or you'll have your spark coming at the wrong times entirely, but yes. If the connector is the one I think, you should just need a small flat-blade screwdriver to remove the terminal from the connector for the CDI. I'd be more helpful, but I'm sitting at work. -Kurt On Wed,

Re: [Nighthawk Lovers] Re: Sunday Ride n Bike Report

Sean. That is sure a mighty generous offer. Thanks. I assume that you are not mainland or I would ride over and pick it up myself. Get the impression I like to put on bike miles? I am sort of on the fence between leaving the rack as is and using the passenger side of the seat for bigger luggage.

Re: [Nighthawk Lovers] Re: Misfire when hot 84 650

So if I swap the blue and yellow wires at the coils since they have a common black and white then the other coil should fail? At that point I would have confirmed it as a bad wire correct? Joel -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Nighthawk Motorcycle L

Re: [Nighthawk Lovers] Re: Misfire when hot 84 650

You've checked the coils. It happens with either box. You're measuring a pulse generated by the box, not a signal passed through the box. You're down to checking things that are the same with different boxes and coils, that points to harnessing. Any issue with the power input to the CDI should af

Re: [Nighthawk Lovers] Re: Misfire when hot 84 650

The cels 2&3 are misfiring. That is the yellow wire on my bike. My question is if I am measuring at the output of the cdi box, why would I suspect the wire to the coil? Or do you mean the input wire to the coil is bad? Joel On Wednesday, April 20, 2016 at 2:28:49 PM UTC-4, Kurt Nolte wrote: > >

Definitely suspect that wire then. I don't know the gap setting. It's not adjustable, right? Kurt On Apr 20, 2016 2:21 PM, "Joel Greaves" wrote: > I have swapped coils several times and it is always cyls 2&3. > What is the acceptable gap on the pulsar units to the rotor in the pulse > generator

Re: [Nighthawk Lovers] Re: Misfire when hot 84 650

Check that blue wire for resistance, good connection, good integrity. Swap coils to see if it follows the coil. That's where I would start. On Apr 20, 2016 12:02 PM, "Joel Greaves" wrote: > > I spoke too soon. >> >> So now I have chased the fault to the cdi box i think. When I put a > voltmeter

Total guess, but wherever the supply is coming from to the CDI on that side must be the problem!? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Nighthawk Motorcycle Lovers!" group. To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an email t
