Ok, got my bike running and it was running good. Then I noticed that it wasn't firing on 1 and 4. Done some trouble shooting and the ignitor's the culprit. Anyway, do any of you guys repair your own ignitors ? If so, where do you find those 2SD997 transistors ? Or..... would anyone have an ignitor laying around, that's messed up that will only fire one coil that you might be willing to part with ?

I'm sure those 2SD997 transistors will cross to something, but I've been out of the electronics repair for awhile, and don't have a cross reference book.

Thanks !
 
you should be able to substitute any power transistor with the same or larger specs...

should be others around like nte ecg...

I can dust off the x-ref books next week if you need me to.

None of these #s verified, they are from previous posts 2sd977, 2sd1120, 2sd 1162 2sd1353 2sd991 Maybe ECG 54
2sd1353 is listed in one ofmy parts books ? is it available ?? won't be able to find out until monday
Have to call them Monday for an order will try to get one. They have the jap master crossreference cat

rustybronco and posplayr put me on the right track. Im going to try this one if the case style is right. It says it's a substitute for the 2SD997.

The 2SD555 was as well, but the case is different.

The one's thats in my ignitor are in this style of case...

Yes sir, and after rereading what I've wrote it would appear that I'm dyslexic..lol Nah, just getting old and don't pay attention I guess.

I wrote -2SD997

It's actually - 2SD977
I came up with some very helpful information when typing 2SD977 into the forum search.

I got one if your still looking

I do have a replacement transistor if you need one....I came up with a "replacement" one but it is also discontinued part number--so my supply will only last for a while...

I pin pointed my problem within my ignitior and replaced the faulty part--now it's running on all 4!

shoot me a e-mail and I'll get you hooked up!

I understand that a BU810 is a good replacement for the 2SD977. It has a TO220 case, and is called a "darlington pair" type transistor and can handle slightly higher current than the D977.:)

I have just buzzed out my igniter schematic and still need some values for the diodes and zeners without actually removing them.
The schematic in beta untested format is available for sharing as soon as I have the other details. I also still need to find equivalents for the 2sc945 and 2sc1213 transistors.:-k

Just a word of caution, the components in the non potted ones are covered in a very thin wax like protection. If you clean this off and fit it on the bike you may have a failure due to water etc. This also needs to be renewed after you replace any parts.;)
