no spark ? nightmare

Postby sebamax2 » Sun Apr 14, 2013 4:20 am

Hi guys. so eventually got the mz 125 sm running. started putting it back together once i connected the headlight the daylight relay started smoking. i left the bike for the night to charge the battery, got to the bike this morning got on to the relay. found some info on the german forum to get it working without getting a replacement for now.

than i went on to start the bike, turn the key hit the starter and nothing happends, its not the battery as when solenoid shortened the engine spins nicely, couldent get my head around it, than i decided to check for spark as even shortened it didnt start and the spark is gone :( i dont know what to do now.

took apart the starter switch and everything looks alright, reading when starter button is pressed was about 1v with the kill switch on or off, its not the side stand switch as i have noticed the previous owner has had it bypassed before.

took of starter relay of my xs250 and same thing so it isent the solenoid.
