Mine is having the same issues I have zero spark I’ve swapped regulators,stator,coil,spark plug it’s showing good readings I still can’t get any spark I even put my old regulator on it to see if it would still spark. It would run for as long as the battery stayed charged. Then I took and replaced the stator and now I can’t get any spark what so ever. I’m so clueless on this foreman and I have so much money invested in it I don’t know what else to do. I would give my left nut if someone would just show me and help walk me through it. lol

If it ran with old regulator I would put it back on and check the fuse under the seat and wires.

Great video!!! I have a nightmare here in front of me. Previous guy put a new coil, plug, voltage regulator, cdi…. (Kill switch tested good) What is the box beside the cdi for? Same plug as cdi…. Are they interchangeable? If not … how the heck do I know what one is for what? 🤦🏽♂️

It’s for the temp sensor to kick on overheating fan and something else I can’t remember but it has nothing to do with spark I can disconnect it and four wheeler will still run. Try checking your pick up coil. The bigger of the 2 boxes is Cdi. not interchangeable and thank you!!!

I followed your video while I went over the wiring. It’s leading me to stator and pick up coil. Stator is showing between 3 volts of alternating current on each yellow wire… . And both other wires (blue and green) on the round plug at the rear wheel are showing continuous continuity to ground.

Only the green should show continuity to ground and the blue one should show I think 145 ohms but I’ll have to double check the amount of ohms. As for the stater just make sure it has continuity from yellow to yellow because they have to have zero to be bad and to be fair I did get 2 bad voltage regulators

I at the stage rate now where I see those yellow wires. One of them branch’s off to the voltage regulator. The regulator was your fix? I notice my regulator doesn’t not fit. Is this why you had to grind the plastic? Thanks for the post

Yes the regulator was the fix and yes that is why I grinded the plastic on the regulator because it was a aftermarket regulator

I replaced the rectifier and cdi i get spark sometimes like rarley. Had it sparking great then all of a sudden....nothing.... checked all my wires everything is looking good. Checked all the plugs i could find they all looked clean n good on the inside sprayed em still same thing. If i get spark sometimes does tbat mean the coil is good?

The coil could be going out but I would check my switch on the handlebars and the key switch you should be able to just jiggle them to see if it changes.
