Don't give up. The electrical guys will chime in shortly with step-by-step for you.1982 GS1100E V&H "SS" exhaust, APE pods, 1150 oil cooler, 140 speedo, 99.3 rear wheel HP, black engine, '83 red
2016 XL883L sigpic Two-tone blue and white. Almost 42 hp! Status: destroyed, now owned by the insurance company. The hole in my memory starts an hour before the accident and ends 24 hours after.

Before giving up, how about some pictures of the damage so someone might have a clue as to what might be going on.http://www.thegsresources.com/_forum...ine=1440711157'78 GS1000E, Dyna-S ignition, Dyna Green Coils, K&N pods, Delkevic SS 4-1 exhaust, Dynojet Stage 3 jet kit, Russell SS Brake Lines, Progressive suspension, Compu-Fire series Regulator 55402 and Advmonster cree LED headlight conversion.

Not sure if I qualify as "one of the electrical guys", but I'll say that the FIRST thing you need to do is to learn to use your meter, and to learn what to look for.
Finding "12 something" on three coil wires (interesting, because there are only two coils) does not help at all with trying to diagnose the problem long-distance.
When you can give us some better clues, we can give you some better guesses.
One other thing that will help is to just start ONE thread on this topic. You started two of them about 10 minutes apart.
