What should I do if my GY6 coil has no spark?
If there is still no spark, the coil is likely bad. Check for proper plug gap! The plug is very rarely the cause of no spark on the GY6. If the plug is fouled or cracked it may not spark. Ensure that the spark plug is gapped properly.Recommended spark plug gap: 0.6mm ~ 0.7mm (0.23″ ~ 0.27″) Was this guide helpful?
What happens when you wire the ignition kit backwards?
Polarity reversed when wiring the ignition kit (i.e., wiring the ignition kit to the + and – terminals of the coil, backwards). This will fry the ignition module’s electronics immediately. The red HotSpark wire should go to the coil’s + terminal and the black HotSpark wire should go to the coil’s – terminal.
Where does the Black Wire on Bosch ignition go?
The black wire connects to negative ( – or 1 on Bosch coil). Connect any other wires to the coil in their original positions. This ignition module is designed for 12V negative ground applications only. Do not connect either of the coil’s terminals ( + or – ) to ground (earth).
What causes ignition module to fail after installation?
Of the ignition modules that have failed, we can usually trace the reason to one of the causes listed above. A few other common installation problems are: 1. Corroded and/or loose ground connection, either at the battery terminal or at the other end of the ground cable, where it makes contact with the vehicle body.
What to do if your ignition coil is not working?
Older ignition systems used breaker points to interrupt the circuit, while more modern systems “sense” the need for spark by means of a hall-effect switch or crankshaft position sensor. The ignition module uses the information to time spark generation. Test these components if the energized coil fails to function.
What happens when you replace the coil wire on an engine?
You can replace the secondary coil wire on an engine that uses one with an equal length of vacuum hose and the engine will start and run. The powerful spark will travel down the hollow hose to the distributor cap, but the engine will stall under any load because of the weakened spark.

How to troubleshoot a GY6 150cc ignition coil?
Troubleshooting the CDI: Ensure your multimeter is set to read in VOLTS “AC”. Just like before: while cranking the engine, use a multimeter to check for voltage at the two primary wires of the ignition coil.
What does it mean when your ATV is not getting power?
No lights, no power to the display, or no power at the ignition. What do you do, and what may be wrong? Here are the most common causes to look into when your ATV is not getting any power.
Why is my spark plug not working on my ATV?
This is the wire that hooks up to the spark plug when it is bolted into the engine. Sometimes these wear out because the wire itself is usually exposed to dirt, rocks, and debris while riding. If the spark plug wire looks good, the next step is to check for bad connections or bad switches.
Why does my ATV not crank when the Kill Switch is off?
ATVs with electrical starter motors won’t even crank the engine if the kill switch is off. So if the engine will crank, you know that the issue is likely not with the kill switch.
What happens if there is no spark in the ignition coil?
Hence, without this high voltage, there is no spark and, consequently, internal combustion cannot take place within the engine. Simply put, the bottom line is without spark the engine doesn’t run.
ATVs with electrical starter motors won’t even crank the engine if the kill switch is off. So if the engine will crank, you know that the issue is likely not with the kill switch.
How do you remove a coil from an ignition coil?
Use a nut driver or a small wrench to loosen the securing nuts on the coil terminals and remove the leads; the positive side of the coil has a condenser lead attached in addition to a positive lead. Then loosen the bottom clamp screw, pull out the center cable that goes to the distributor and remove the coil.
What to do if your ATV has electrical problems?
ATV electrical problems can be a nightmare, but sometimes there is a quick fix. An electrical tester or voltage meter of some sort will help, but is not always neccessary. First we need to figure out what the ATV is NOT doing.
Where does the spark come from on a GY6 150cc?
There should be at least 0.05vAC coming from the trigger wire (Blue/Yellow). Write the voltages down and continue to the next step. The CDI Unit is powered by the AC current coming from the wrapped stator winding.
What should the gap be on a brisk spark plug?
Excessive changing of the spark plug gap setting will result in weakening of the spark plug ground electrode and can lead to breakage. Also, the spark plug gap should never exceed.055″ unless pre-set by the manufacturer. Most Brisk and other manufacturer sparkplugs are preset to around 0.75mm – 0.8mm.
How to troubleshoot a GY6 150cc ignition plug?
Sends a signal to the CDI to let it know when to send fire to the plug. Set your multimeter to read in VOLTS “AC”. Locate and disconnect the Black/Red and Blue/Yellow wires coming from the stator, where they plug into the main engine harness. (These are both bullet-style connectors)

Why is my electric bike not charging properly?
1. CYCLE ANALYST SETTINGS MAY HAVE BEEN CHANGED CAUSING UN-INTENDED RESULTS. 2. MOTOR HALL SENSOR MAY HAVE BEEN DAMAGED. -CONTACT VESSEL BIKES FOR MORE INFORMATION ON TESTING FOR THIS CONDITION. 3. E-BRAKE MAY BE CAUSING THIS ISSUE IF ACCIDENTALLY BEING PRESSED. Q. Does pedaling re-charge the battery? A. Not really.

Why is the ON / OFF switch on my ebike not working?
SWITCH DAMAGED ON CONTROLLER. IF THE BATTERY HAS CHARGE, AND IS PROPERLY CONNECTED, THE ON/OFF SWITCH ON THE CONTROLLER MAY BE AT FAULT. REMOVING THE 4 SCREWS HOLDING THE SWITCH PLATE WILL GIVE ACCESS TO THE SWITCH.
