CDI Output Test
Using Peak Reading Adaptor
Re-connect all wires to the CDI box. Disconnect the (BLACK/
YEL) CDI output wire from ignition coil primary terminal.
Install the Peak Reading Adaptor (PV-39991) to your meter and
connect one meter lead to engine ground and the other to the
(BLACK/YEL) CDI output wire at the ignition coil. Set meter
to read DC Volts. Crank engine and verify CDI output to the
ignition coil. When finished, reconnect CDI output wire to
ignition coil.

Pulser Coil Output / Resistance Tests

Disconnect the 4-wire connector at the CDI box. Install the Peak
Ignition
Reading Adaptor (PV-39991) to your meter and connect one
Timing
meter lead to the dark blue / black wire (DB/YEL) and the other
N/A
to engine ground. Set meter to read DC Volts. Crank engine and
verify pulser coil output.
Pulser Coil
If readings are within specifications, test the resistance value of
the pulser coil. When finished, reconnect the 4-wire connector
to CDI box.
