last check before i try out some parts ( cdi + voltage regulator)

i have finally got around to ordering a cdi box and voltage regulator for my 84 vf700

incase anyone doesnt remember my threads,

my red box went so i tried swapping the white plug box to it which was good but it went as soon as i tried it out...

i believe someone suggested volt reg went and was killing the cdi boxes when plugged into the red plug...

well i want to know before i hook the used cdi+vr i bought up to the bike could anything elce cause only the red plug cdi box to blow?

id have to waste all that money to be sol again

thanks

 

any ideas? i really want to get this thing back up and running but cant afford to be running through cdi boxes

 

Sorry. Can't help. Follow my advise and someone will get rich courtesy of your bank book.

 

Go for it, you gotta try it to move foward. CDI's take a dive from time to time and it may just have taken a shit due to age. Good luck.

 

If you remember the white plug one got killed as soon as i hooked it up to the red plug, you sent me my replacement white plug one since i fried mine...

But i suppose ill just go over everything once good to check for shorts and fire her up...

 

Yeah, double check all voltages . When you pulled the CDI board out did you see any visual damge on it?

 

Nope, that was the first thing I looked for on both boards, but nothing was obviously damaged...

 

Hi,
what about pulse generators ? If they are "out" (also because of age) no spark at all...
Hope this will help.

well what originally happened was the red cdi box went out and when i tried plugging the white on into that plug it stopped working as well, i checked by switching them back to the white plug and neither worked...
