Ignition Module

The ignition module accommodates
all the components required to
control ignition timing. There are
two electrical connections on the
coil body:
: High voltage output (1) for
ignition lead
: Connector tag (2) for short
circuit wire
Testing in the workshop is limited to
a spark test.
A new ignition module must be
installed if no ignition spark is
obtained (after checking that wiring
and stop switch are in good
condition).
