Issues with 78 gl1000 dyno S ignition

Post by 98.cr250 »



I have just recently purchased my first gl1000 as a project, and I’m having some issues with the dyno S ignition that was previously put on the bike and right now there just is no spark. I’ve checked the coils and they have 12v going to them but the plugs are getting no power, I’ve checked the accesory terminal and thats also not getting any power and thats where the dyna S should be getting its 12v from. If anyone with more knowledge than me can that would be greatly appreciated. Thankyou in advance.

Have you checked all the fuses? The ignition really shouldn't be getting its power from the accessory terminal, but should use a run terminal like the coils.
