You can use either a 4 terminal or a 5 terminal relay. 87 has power when the relay is ON, 87a has power when the relay is OFF.
Either way, terminal 87 goes to both coils.

If you are getting a pulsing 0.5-12.0 volts on the coil terminal that connects to the igniter, it is not fried. The regulator has no effect on starting, just charging, which is an entirely different area to explore.
Are the Taylor wires you purchased the copper or suppression type? I ask because you cannot use suppression wires with the NGK caps. It is an either/or thing.Comment

ok,
got back on the 1150 to test the igniter/cdi box and pickup
pickup looks good, I have a ohms reading within spec between each set of wires coming out
the ignitor test is funny, but I tried it and got no spark at the plug
does this mean my igniter/cdi box is bad? I think so...Comment

all the fuse box terminals nice and shiney?? getting solid voltages thru the starter button and kill switch? Just went thru similar on a Cooley and the fuse box was the problem.MY BIKES..1977 GS 750 B, 1978 GS 1000 C (X2)

never seen a bad pick up unless it had been crashed.
i have seen MANY bad ignitors on the electronic advance models.
it's a shame you don't have someone local to let you plug there box in and see if that fixes it....
i have a couple boxes but i doubt that your close to me.Comment

fuse box looks normal, I relayed my coils so if the relay turns on then my kill/starter switch should be fine as they are bypassed with the relay mod...Originally posted by chuck hahn View PostComment

Always better to send the suspect box to someone that has a known good bike... That way a good ignitor isn't plugged into a bike that -may- have a wiring issue.Originally posted by blowerbike View Post
Send your ignitor to a member on here and see if they'll plug it into a known good bike to test it....Comment

I had a brand new Dyna-S go bad. 1-4 trigger was faulty. Sent it back and they replaced it. The whole point was to improve the ignition, so it was rather frustrating to take it for a test spin and find it cutting out on two cylinders. After that I plugged the stock ignitor back in and used it while the Dyna-S sat in the tool box till last summer, when I found out on my first ever dyno run my stock ignitor was breaking up at 7000rpms. I've had a Dyna-S since last summer and used green 3.0 ohm coils for years. Dyna makes a good product and the staff a very helpful, I just happened to get a bad one that slipped through.GS\'s since 1982: 55OMZ, 550ES, 750ET, (2) 1100ET\'s, 1100S, 1150ES. Current ride is an 83 Katana. Wifes bike is an 84 GS 1150ESComment

good point for a normal person but...Originally posted by sparki View Post
i had a box full of these at one time.
if an 1150 came in with no spark i would plug one of mine in...always took care of the problem.
luckily none was over charging drastically or i believe that would have smoked my ignitor.Comment

we have spark!
bought a used ignitor box from chef, plugged it in and a nice big spark appeared!
but Im back to dealing with this problem...
