hi i want adapt a general Chinese kickstant switch to my old sym gts 250 witch came with it missed. Both are 3 wires but they have different color. so i dont want mess up or burn stuff. here what i know: from sym wire diagram book the 3 wires that came to the kickst switch are 1 black/green wire that came from engine stop switch 2 a white/red wire that comes from engine stop relay 3 a blue white wire that goes to the dashboard stand light (and seems to be ground). The chinese kickstand switch has 3 wires too but they are 1 black/white 2 green/white 3 green. now the problem is matching them also because both are female connector so i have to bridge them in a old fashion style (elect tape). Has someone idea about matches or did the job previously?

@motorcyclerescuer2 жыл бұрын
Hmmmmmm I think that's wrong if I'm being honest. If you have no spark the issue will be either cdi itself, stator pick up, side stand switch not working, emergency cut off not working or key ignition not working even if it appears to be. Could also be a bad spark plug, coil or wiring to the coil. You normally eliminate these 1 by 1 until you have your fix. I would look at the side stand first, see if it has wires going to it. If it does then that switch could be faulty

The stator and cdi may need to be next. Cdi is fairly cheap so tempting to go with that as it may resolve the issue. Stator isn't too expensive but you will need a removal tool on top. Probably a £50 home fix on that one. Cdi should be £15 ish.

Your fzr may or may not have one, but if your side stand has wires then definitely check this first. No spark can also be a CDI issue or kill switch issue. It's rare for both coil packs to go at the same time.

@@unpoliticallyuncorrect6135 I don't laugh at people who want to learn mate, I've got plenty time for people willing to learn and give things a try. What area are you in roughly? So the kill switch is the red up and down switch on your right handle bar. Flick it up and down a bunch of times, sometimes if the bike has been sitting them the switch gets corroded and disables the spark. Flick away say 20 times then check for spark again. Definitely do the side stand switch as I've done in my video and check the spark again. Now the bike also has a stator which is probably the most difficult to do but the last to try really. The CDI is the computer, it's not the coils. But the switch and side stand are the first 2 things to check. Keep me updated and keep firing questions
