04 BD Chopper no fire

[Tom Moore]

my 04 Chopperwouldn't start after a short run. It turns over but no fire with plenty of gas. My red led light doesn't light but I have power to both coil wire terminals. Full voltage. What is going on and how do I get this up and running?

Hey. Start with the intro. And check the camshaft sensor.

 

[Tom Moore]

I'll check out the intro but camshaft sensor looked good. Not much to it

 

[Alexey]

What does it mean to look good? The sensor always looks good. Even if it is blown. It needs to be checked using a multimeter.

 

[Tom Moore]

Ok very good, I have a volt ohm meter. How do I check it?

 

[Alexey]

Is there a spark?

 

[Tom Moore]

No spark on the plugs, where else should I be looking

 

[Alexey]

The camshaft sensor has three wires. Check all these wires. Red power, black ground, and the third is the control wire. It sends a signal to the module. Check the red and black. If they are in order then take the indicator with a finger battery and give a signal to the third wire. There should be a spark. If so, replace the sensor.

It's either the igntion module or the Cam sensor.

On the 2004, on the ignition module when you hit run the red light turns on for a few seconds then off. It should then flash when cranking. If you toggle that switch on/off does the light come on at all?

I checked the wiring coming from the cam sensor. There is no power coming out of the red wire. This was done without turning over the engine. The red light does not come on toggling off/run switch. However there is power to both coil terminals

Should only have power to coil on Red wire not the Blue and Yellow. Unless engine is running.

Engine is not running only the ignition switch is on. Is my coil bad?

I don't have a digital multi meter just a simple colt ohm meter. I'm afraid I may blow it if I set it to check ohms when I get 12 volts from either terminal.

 

[Tom Moore]

If I need to pick up a DMM I will get one

Good Job, Alexey.

I want to let folks know I purchased an Ultima Programmable Single Fire complete ignition system. It should be here Thursday so I should have it on the road again by Friday, (probably Thursday night) with any luck. I do appreciate everyones input. this will solve the cam sensor and coil issue with one kit, bypassing the ignition module under the seat. thanks again folks!
