What we will be doing here is troubleshooting these ignition parts starting at the source, and working towards the spark plug.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Major Ignition Components<br \/>\n<\/strong><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Stator (6th winding and trigger pickup module)<\/li>\n<li>CDI unit<\/li>\n<li>Ignition coil<\/li>\n<li>Spark plug<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>To diagnose your ignition system, you will need to do each of the steps in this article, in sequence.<\/p>\n<h2>Basic GY6 Diagram<\/h2>\n<p>Before getting started, take a look at this diagram.

Before beginning to troubleshoot ignition problems, it is best to bypass the switches.<\/p>\n<h3><b>How to bypass your switches<\/b><\/h3>\n<ol>\n<li>Create a jumper wire from pin #4 directly to a good grounding spot on the engine.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Being <em>very<\/em> careful not to deform or break the pin,\u00a0<\/strong>remove the #5 wire from the CDI plug at the harness. This can be done with a sharp narrow tool like an ice pick or stiff paper clip. Looking from the front of the plug, you will see small metal tabs on each pin which secure them to the plug. Push the tab down and the pin will release. <strong>Don&#8217;t use force here.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>TEST 1: STATOR<\/h2>\n<div id=\"attachment_185\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.buggydepot.com\/tech-center\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/product_image_315_9041.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-185\" data-attachment-id=\"185\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.buggydepot.com\/tech-center\/gy6-150cc-ignition-troubleshooting-guide-no-spark\/product_image_315_904-2\/#main\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/www.buggydepot.com\/tech-center\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/product_image_315_9041.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"1000,669\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"product_image_315_904\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/www.buggydepot.com\/tech-center\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/product_image_315_9041.jpg\" class=\"wp-image-185 size-medium\" src=\"http:\/\/www.buggydepot.com\/tech-center\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/product_image_315_9041-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"product_image_315_904\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.buggydepot.com\/tech-center\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/product_image_315_9041-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.buggydepot.com\/tech-center\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/product_image_315_9041.jpg 1000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-185\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Note the wrapped ignition winding, and trigger module<\/p><\/div>\n<p><strong>Ignition Winding:<\/strong><br \/>\nDepending on your stator type, you have either 6, 8, or 11 windings.
