[@purplepeavey7874]

Great video. My friend got a bike with this problem. The previous owner replaced the ignition with an after market ignition switch. Will replace it. Thanks. 👍👍

Really informative thanks. Love my zx9. Got an E1, I’ll keep this video in mind if it ever develops that issue. Subbed 👍

[@repair_tech_brian5388]

Appreciate that! I love my zx9s , in my opinion, it's one of the best bikes out their.

Where are you located?? I need a 2000 zx9r worked on just put a new to me motor in the bike blew last motor I rode the bike one day with new motor the carbs had a leak at the fuel rail T so I fixed that put bike back together carbs cleaned ect now bike only cranks no spark

[@repair_tech_brian5388]

Did you check the wires running from the pulser coil

[@that_zx9r_tho309]

@@repair_tech_brian5388 yeah I don’t think I was getting any power but can’t remember bike made me so mad I don’t even wanna look at it I know the actual coil packs were getting power but no spark when I hit the switch so initially I thought Cdi then I seen your vid just haven’t had time to mess with it I would pay someone to have it fixed but bike being 23 years old no one wants to touch it 😑

[@grabielguzmeli4750]

Thank you so much I thought I was going crazy because I parked it for a few weeks and somehow the fuse blew

You don’t even want to know all the parts I threw at it because I suck at diagnosing. 😅

Hey what do you think about my zx9r 98 that keeps burning the number 2 coil . I can't figuer it out 😢

[@repair_tech_brian5388]

Does it have oil around the coil? Did you check the wiring and pigtail on that coil

[@zackmagas1561]

Hey so working on a 2002 zx9r, tested the grey wire from the ignition, it’s an aftermarket on me not oem, I have the voltage drop at the pigtail but I don’t have it at the cdi box

[@repair_tech_brian5388]

Are you getting the proper voltage drop?

[@publicroyalty8682]

quick question .. good morning good marking 💪🏾 i have an 01 Kawasaki ZX9R how would i figured why’s she’s dripping red fluid ?.. its kinda mixed with some other fluid. maybe oil 🤷🏽‍♂️ i hint of gas smell . guy i got it from says its the water pump … we all kno how that goes .. help please lol

[@repair_tech_brian5388]

Definitely should not have any red fluid. Unless previous owner ran a different type of antifreeze

[@publicroyalty8682]

i thought the same so was gonna drain the oil ofc see what may come out other then what should ?. lol ik they def wrecked the bike frames still good everything runs but is there a way i can send you a photo of a tube that def has burnt plastic stuck around it ?. As if it went somewhere ?. we have the exact same bike

[@publicroyalty8682]

im about to get all new fuses & and air filter . wiring harness isn’t correct.

[@Mr.EeToMyself]

Sir, the left coil on my 92 zx7 won’t fire. The coil works. Any ideas? Please

[@repair_tech_brian5388]

Their is a wiring issue then. Check wires for any that could be broken going to that coil

[@Mr.EeToMyself]

@@repair_tech_brian5388 I've tried yo locate any issue. It's got to be the ignitor?

Hi what could it be i have cleaned the carbs i thought that was the problem. If it stand stil it could rev past 5000 rpms but when ridding it does not want to go past 5000 rpms please Help

Hey, i got a 2000 zx9r and since 2 or 3 weeks i have a problem. Sometimes when i press the E-starter there is nothing except a silenced electrical sound and after 1 minute or so i can get here on and she runs good. But only sometimes, what could that be?

Hey I have a 2001 ZX9R that I've owned for 7 years I've had numerous issues over 7 years but this new one is the biggest head scratcher started the bike up road to someplace shut the key off came back to the bike turn the key no power 30 amp main fuse blown replaced it immediately pops again I've checked every single connection that I can think about and looked for broken wires it's definitely wire to ground or wire to wire because the fuse pops immediately I checked the kill switch I checked the ignition switch I changed the rectifier a couple months ago because it was melting the wires any ideas other than pulling the wiring harness and taking it all apart and finding the broken or touching fires any help is much appreciated

[@nitramh24]

Great info, thanks! On my 98 ZX98 it sometimes takes forever to get it to spark... I tested for spark and after a loooong crank it suddenly fired up and ran great (she also zapped me like crazy in the finger, and ran on three cylinders😂). Any idea what can cause a delayed spark? I've noticed a small fray on the black crank position wire, might that be the culprit?

[@repair_tech_brian5388]

Could be, on the c model zx9s they have a cam position sensors on the right side of the head. Delayed spark can come from a wiring issue or a sensor

[@nitramh24]

@@repair_tech_brian5388 Thanks, I'll see if I can get it fixed. I hate electrics, but there's no way around it, time to put the pants on and get it done!

[@nitramh24]

@@repair_tech_brian5388 Found the hard-to-start issue. It was actually the idle set screw was set to high, at 1300rpm🫣 I lowered the idle to 1100, and she fires right up. A high idle negates the choke mechanism all together… I got the frayed cam position wire sorted anyway (but that wasn’t the issue). Kinda embarassing, but that’s life.
