Wiring help for 1990 cb125 no spark
« on: March 19, 2012, 07:37:55 PM »
I've got some help adapting 2 clone china CDI's to replace the super expensive CDI in my 1990 cb125, no of course, I can't get a spark. Here is a diagram of my wiring. There are probably more than a couple things wrong? The stater motor turns over.



I don't have the original wiring diagram

Not that anyone seems to care, but I was able to wire my bike with the 2 generic CDI's. Here is a simple diagram of the set up. My problem was stemming from the fact that the CDI needs AC power to run and the coils need dc.
