Power to the coil but no spark! Help!

[Kickstand87]

Thanks for reading.
I recently had my starter rebuilt and reinstalled after about to months of sitting as well as a new battery. Well so last night I put everything back together and bike is turning like a champ, but now I have no spark. New to the big dog electrical system I should say. I checked and do have power to my coil however no fire out of the coil. I've also checked and have over 12 amps on the coil when key on and in the run position. Any help or troubleshooting ideas would be much appreciated. Thank you for your time!

Are Getting A Red Light On Your Ignition Module When You Turn The Bike Over

 

[Kickstand87]

Actually No I'm not. When I test the wires coming off the module with a test light, the red light on the module does come on. Not quiet sure what that might mean.

If You're Not Getting A Red Light When You Turn The Motor Over You Need To Check Voltage From The EHC to The Ignition Module.

Ok thanks for the tip. I will go check it out now

 

[Kickstand87]

After checking the ignition module I have power coming in and out of it. I also checked my relays and sensors and they all seem to be ok. Is it possible my coil is grounding itself out or maybe the volage regulator?

If you Getting Voltage to The Ignition Module From The EHC but No Led On The ignition Module When You Crank The Motor Then Something Is Impeding The Ignition Module From Sending Its Signal, Voltage, to The Coil For Spark. Crank SEnsor Or Ignition Module Issue.
Pull Your Crank Sensor And Make Sure Its Free Of Debris

I will be checking it out again tomorrow. I appreciate your help. Hoping to figure it out for the rally this weekend. Weather is too nice for a bike to be on a lift!

Well I finally had a lil time to mess with the dog again. I replaced the cam sensor wih fingers crossed but to no luck still no spark. Figured elimination from least expensive part on up couldn't hurt. At least it would all be new at the end of the day right!? Installed a new crane cams coil and still nothing! Needless to say I have placed an order for a new ignition module "which of course is back ordered at the time". Will update when I get that installed.

FWIW I noticed a couple TH ignition modules at BikerGarage101.com They're in the midst of a total selloff. Closing the site down. Take a look while you still can. I don't know if they are the correct ones for your bike.

 

[Kickstand87]

Thanks for the tip! I'll check them out and see what I can find.

I received my new ignition module from thunder heart and to my surprise still nothing! Not sure where to go from here. I do have the pdm retrofit kit since I've had the bike so I know it's not the stock ehc. I'm going to be checking wires around the starter to make sure I didn't break one on the inside when changing the starter.

Have you checked the fuses in the PDM?

If ignition module isn't lighting up could be a faulty HCI like mine

 

[Kickstand87]

The only way I can get it to light up is if I put a test light on the brown wire that runs from my cam sensor to ignition module.

 

[Kickstand87]

I just pulled that wire and checked for a break in it but could not find one.

Exactly where are you hooking up the test light?

Pulled the wire? Does that mean you removed it from the bike? And checked it how? By eye? With a multimeter?

I removed the wire from the bike and checked it by eye. Hooked the test light to battery ground to the wire on both sides of the connections.
