Cranking Output Tests Using
Peak Reading Adaptor or Volt Ohm Meter
The following peak voltage tests will measure the amount of
output directly from each component. A peak reading voltmeter
can be used to perform the tests. A variety of peak reading
adaptors are commercially available for use with the Fluke ™ 77
Digital Multimeter (PV-43568) and other digital VOMs which
will allow peak voltage tests to be performed accurately. Follow
the directions provided with the adaptor. All measurements are
indicated in DC Volts. Readings obtained without a peak reading
adaptor will be significantly different.
CDI Output
Locate the CDI module under the driver’s side seat. Make sure
all stator and CDI wires are connected. Remove the CDI output
wire (White/Blue) from the ignition coil primary terminal.
Using the test table below crank the engine to check for proper
CDI output.
Pulse Coil Output
Disconnect the stator connector from the CDI module. While
cranking the engine, test output from the pulse (trigger) coil.
Measure between the (White/Red and White) wires and
compare the cranking output to the test table below.
Resistance Tests
Perform these tests using an Ohm meter or multimeter with the
ignition key turned off. All readings are in Ohms.
Flywheel Identification
The flywheel can be identified by the stamp mark in location A.
