Title: CDI burns out when trying to electric start- no spark to plug - CDI gets hot
Post by: BobinGuam on July 27, 2011, 01:35:52 AM

My Kymco Agility 50 died at the intersection.
1. Checked for spark, nothing!
2. Checked the voltage from the battery to the ignition switch, good.
3. Checked the voltage from the ignition switch to the CDI, good.
4. Checked the spark plug wire, good! But still no spark!
5. Took apart the carburetor completely and cleaned all parts in my ultrasonic cleaner!
6. Noticed a sound coming out of the CDI
7. Bought a new CDI and it burned out
8. Installed a good used  CDI knowing it was good and burned it out as well!
Help! What is the cause of the CDI buring out?
Tried kick starting it and no luck!
Thanks for anyone's reply! Anything would help at this time!

Have you tested your coil or checked for any shorts to your coil?
