    1982 GS550L No Spark

    I have no spark on any cylinder and Im thinking that it is the ignitor, but is it possible to have a faulty kill switch, or ignition.

    The bike turns over but has no spark.

    Can I bypass the ignition and kill switch?

    Well I did some more testing today, It is not the kill switch or ignition.

    But the weird thing is I have 4 ohm resistant from the orange white power wire to battery ground. It seems like that is not correct.

    Could it be a bad ground or a wire connected wrong.

    it seems like I have some electrical gremlins.

    when I bought the bike the guy said it was running an then he parked it for the winter and the next spring it wouldn't start, No Spark.

      Sorry for all of these post but I keep thinking things after.

      I also have a orange wire with red tracer that goes no where that is under the tank. It has battery power to it. But I can't find where it plugs to.

        Maybe he parked it because it had no spark ! Your testing in other thread points to bad ignitor. Used ebay units would be suspect as well.
