Solving the Mystery of the No Spark Yamaha Grizzly 600, Fixing a No Start ATV!

This Yamaha Grizzly 600 has been sitting in the lower driveway for awhile waiting for me to troubleshoot a no spark engine problem. The initial debug indicated that the pulse generator and the stator coil that powers in CDI were both opened circuit. Its last owner was told that it rolled over in a ditch and would not start when righted. The coil and pulse generator should not have been damaged by an ATV side roll. The troubleshooting was completed in this video and the complete stator and pulse generator were replaced. The spark has returned and in the next video, the carburetor will be cleaned and the engine started. Yamaha Grizzly 600 4x4 Revival.

Nice for you to talk us through the troubleshooting routine you used. Lots of useful tips in this video. Thanks for sharing it.

Amazing electrical understanding on your part, something I'm lacking. Got lucky getting my 200es running yesterday thanks to a $12 PZ27 and an $8 throttle cable and got the idle low enough to put into reverse! Not so lucky on the 200s today but the carb and throttle cable duet went quicker so as soon as I can check for spark, I'll focus there. I was able to remove the bracket on the cable choke style carb and replace it with the metal arm for the manual choke model. Keep on that Grizzly.

Thanks for taking us through the labor hrs. You've seen enough of these to know what you are doing and it's still a lot of time. I just spent my day with rusty tank and his friend clogged fuel filter!

Good video Harvey, stuff like this is alot of work, really happy you took us along with you, learned a lot on this one. Keep them coming!

[@blessedwithpatty3568]

Harvey is the G.O.A.T. ....... wealth of knowledge...... (appreciate your help Mr spooner!)

Hey

[@frankhincks8737]

I was given a dragon motorsports 250 with no spark and after testing replaced the cdi still no spark then had to find a stator and pick up coil when doing that found out it is a honda gutted wiring and redid thanks to your videos it now runs thanks for doing your videos

[@crazypeoplearoundtheworld304]

I'd hate to pay this guy by the hour.

[@fan1701]

Looks like you are almost there. That's probably all that is wrong with it. Hopefully the carb isn't full of crud. 👍👍

[@ebaymoncton]

The coil that charges the cdi is called the exciter coil :) good video

[@danielbyrd4113]

Hey

[@tommygunss4576]

sounds like a good "friend."

[@colonialroofingofnorthcaro441]

Im having some of the same problems, I've watched all the Kodiak videos but I can't find the video where you fixed it, did you ever find out what's going on, did you get that book for the wiring diagram, let me know which video shows the fix, thanks for all the vids and the learning that is over loading my brain lol, but I'm still going to keep pushing it in till it registers, God bless

[@Roboticdoughbull3k]

😆this is the fix partner, restart and watch again beginning to end, you'll have it.

[@mikeshobbiesandrandomstuff]

I bet you got another good work horse👍👍✌️

[@danielbyrd4113]

Hey I got a 00 600 grizzly with a prob seeing if you could help me out plz

[@danielbyrd4113]

Hey I got a 00 600 grizzly need some help findin out whats up with itplz

[@krishermanowski3599]

Is there a special timing for the stator ? My bike runs a little sluggish and doesn’t want to rev up fast. I think maybe it’s the stator, idk

[@countrygentleman4084]

Looking good

[@inthenameofmyfather3836]

i have a problem with one on these it just randomly shuts of and loss of spark all parts in the flywheel checks out new key switch nut/rev lights work any help would be a blessing Harvey

[@MrAdrenalin17]

Just out of observation cuz I just did a stator on my 87' big bear 4x4, same issue, but shouldn't the stator be clocked so the big cdi mag is facing the pick up coil

[@drysj]

Can wrong timing cause low compression and loss of spark?

[@samhendriksen7490]

Hi do you have the part number or link, my grizzly 600 has the exactly the same problem thanks

[@danielbyrd4113]

Hey do you still got you 600 grizzly

[@davekimbler2308]

Hefty bugger ain’t it ! Lol .

[@d2sfavs]

how much was that stator and pulse coil?im seeing a big price range

[@0ldydezark812]

$35 for both on Amazon plus $12 For the cover gasket

[@aidenmccullough7633]

I was wondering if you could help me troubleshoot how to get my 110cc chinese quad going.

[@blessedwithpatty3568]

Homework for you is harveys no spark atv videos......

[@ArtuFlako]

How I wish you had video like this on a Bombardier ds 650. I have no spark on mines. Have no clue what to do 😕

[@thisisderf4768]

You ever find the issue. Having the same problem with mine

[@ArtuFlako]

@@thisisderf4768 trigger coil and cdi for me

[@riderr2035]

This video is for beginners not sense to me cuz he check stator he said everything was fine when he check before take apart. I can do that with close eyes i have a artic cat with spark i put new stator flywheel was good i try another cdi and still not start can you make a video with the flywheel with spend over the little keyway spend around the shafh that why i have not spark on the time was not needed i have spark but out of time this video is so easy also my advice to beginer to take stator cover off is drain the oil first remove foot rest if want for more access to cover and flip the bike on side on two wheels so the stator cover set straight up when you take cover off nothing fall off and make sure all the washer put it back between gear some bike has that especially on Suzuki eiger

[@Itsjustbeau]

I agree don't fix it if it isn't broke.

[@tombrown7015]

WISH I COULD FIND A MECHANIC IN SOUTHERN KENTUCKY

[@danielbyrd4113]

How do I talk to this guy

[@joncollinsmiley6550]

Mine read 46.5????

[@dustinpalmer3386]

Its not a honda harvey i have an 83 185s runs like a brand new one cranks on 1 pull

[@mikegauthier8549]

harvey my chinese quad on my stator my green wire and red wire r not grounded to the frame
