    GS450GA automatic NO SPARK

    HELPPPPP

    I have a 1982 GS450GA suzuki Matic

    I got this bike in working condition , I restored it and put it back together but ijust cant get it to spark
    checked all wiring , put a new plugs, plug wires, coils, stator /generator , Battery , and still not sparking I dropped the CDI while i was restoring it so Im wondering if i damaged it or not !!

    The CDI for this Bike Reads 32900-44510 BB 1207 , I bought a CDI 81-83 but it reads 32900-44420 BB 1214 , installed it and still no spark , something unique is when i press the start button i see no spark but when i release the start button i see two sparks and that's it .

    My question to you is do you think the CDI that i bought would work with my Bike even if it has different numbers? I don't understand why ONLY 1982 GS450GA has its own specific CDI

    the only thing left to change is the rectifier my question is would the bike not spark if the rectifier is bad ?

    I really need your help , the bike is been sitting for sometime and i want to get it to run

    Thanks in advanc

    Sounds like something is not plugged Into the right place. What is happening with the start button is the clue. You get spark but not at the right time. You have done allot of work, go over it all over again. It wouldn’t be the first time something might have been missed. Does not really answer your question....so imho the cdi is good, there is a way to check it, you might ask that question as well.

      I think the one you bought is some kind of clone-replacement for the original. From a lookup online, some say It's supposed to work on your bike (450GA and other 450s etc..) That said, I don't have a 450GA and you're right- I don't see it officially listed on my goto parts fiche as a replacement. Your OEM igniter seems to be unique. Stranger things have happened. It's an uncommon bike. Always was.

      Plus,...if it's second hand that's a chance and dropping it won't help. You might even need to find a wiring diagram for it to double check that your wiring is correct.
      Your problem may be elsewhere too-in the kill switch wiring etc but it's unlikely the fault is at the rectifier. anyways, you don't actually need the rectifier connected to run the bike-It'll run on just the battery for awhile before going dead.


      At the very least, ensure it is well grounded. And be sure your battery is charged up when starting.
