Hello, I am a new member here on hdtimeline
I have a problem with my 2003 sporster 883c that intermittently loses spark to both plugs.
Sometimes it will start and sometimes it will not(no spark)
when it starts their is good blue spark their though.
when it does start once it is warm if I give it any throttle it dies and then their is no spark, I have to wait hours for it to start again.
here is somethings I have tested;
full charged battery
when running tested that the bike is charging
tested key on power to both coil terminals,
on the bottom of the bike, I test the 6wire igition module plugin with actucally 5 wires inside, I test the wires from the coil to this plugin
that seems fine,
I test the ground at this plugin,
cleaned the battery ground and the frame ground
I am not sure if it is a wiring problem or igition module or coil problem, but would like to figure out which before buying any parts
I do have a digtial meter and tools here.
any help or ideas would be great.
thank you
