lost spark

[02yamaturd]

went on a 4+ hour ride yesterday, anyways got the bike home, parked it under the carport...hour or so later came out to start it n nothin...immediatly checked for fuel and spark...turns out no spark...pulled all the fenders off when i got home tonight, n started checking everything obvious....checked the fuse, good and all connections....basically i have power, all the way to the coil....i dont have a multi meter as of right now(gonna borrow or buy one tomorrow), just a test light, so i dont have much to work with.... ....if anybody could throw out a list of some other things i could check or just run down a list of things i should check b/4 i jump to conclusion on something that its not....thanks in advance guys.... also...anyone have a downloadable service manual?????

Check all the normal switches that can cause issues. Clutch, reverse, neutral switch on the side of the case, and of course the kill switch. The link to the downloadable manual is somewhere in the stickies on this site. Do a search and you should be able to find it.

reverse and neutral switch are good from what ive checked...

On the stator n magneto...where am I measuring for ohms at on them????

You need to download the manual. There is a chart in there that tells the wire colors and what the readings should be.
