    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

...couldn't get a reading threw the plug wires...

Hi,

You couldn't get a reading through the plug wires? Could this mean that the plug caps are bad? Or there is a bad connection at the plug caps? Have you replaced them?


Thank you for your indulgence,

BassCliff
 
ok when i tested for voltage at the coil connectors. i couldn't get a good steady reading. so i suspect the relay got a little cooked as well. thats the cheap part gonna replace it good or bad. I contacted Accel ya not great with customer service. the coils are at 4ohms from the connectors, and as we know should be at 3. plug wires dont look like they got hot. yet i could not get a reading of the secondary windings threw the wires. i did not try to bypass the wire and just take the reading. but i was pressed for time. and like i said the bike is 60miles away

I wouldn't consider a reading of 4 ohms (instead of 3 ohms) to be a problem. even a good multimeter is not going to be very accurate measuring anything less than 100 ohms or so
 
ya i would think i should still be getting spark at 4ohms just not as good... im gonna pick up a new relay over the weekend and see if there is any change..
