ok i'm at my wits end. new spark plug, no spark new coil, no spark new CDI, no spark new wiring harness, no spark battery is getting juice so it's not the stater. if the battery is low will i not get a spark? ingnition? kill switch? pulsar coil? rectifier? is there a ground connection i'm not seeing? i followed the clymer manual. and the manual says to check the head bolts??? please, anyone, it been 2 months.   |

Sorry to have to tell you this, but it can be and probably is the stator. The SR500 electrical system is very defferent than most. It has three seperate coils and each has its own function. One charges the battery, one runs the lights and the third one powers the ignition. You need to test it with an ohm meter by unpluging the wire connector that come from the stator. The resistance for different colorwires has been posted somewhere on the forum.

If the meter reads infinity, the wire is broken. This is the way these coils fail. I believe its the the low spreed coil, which is wound with very thin wire .005 dia.
Can be rewound, a number of folks have done it at home.

Yes,the puller will work, the low speed exciter is the part [usually under the trigger] that is a fat coil with a skinny coil either side of it, they are notorious when bike has sat for a while, tell them NEVER to cut the skinny legs off, rewind the three, its cheap and should last forever. regards Carl, caferacer mc

Hi, Stick the bike in low gear, put the socket and breaker bar on the nut and give the bar a quick hit with a rubber mallet. Should come undone then... SR  |
