exclamation marks and BLOCK CAPS!

i posted this up in the tech section ( https://cbrforum.com/forum/general-t...-spark-153275/ ) but it really is an f3 specific question. if you want to read over my diagnostics this far.


just replaced the pulse generator with one from an f2, exact same item that was already in there. the orangey tan coloured one rather than the red one thats meant to be in the f3. same item, same specifications, different colour just to clarify.

and it's still giving me a reading of 0.2v rather than the 0.7v it needs. it also gives 440-450 ohms resistance when the minimum is 460, i am going to double check with another multimeter just to be safe here. it seems odd that it would be out of spec by the exact same figures.

so here we go, i need a favour from someone with a working ignition circuit. i need to know what resistance you have between the positive feed at the coil to the 16 point connector at the icm? the 0.4-0.5 ohm I'm getting seems abnormal to me but there is no mention of this in either the f2 or f3 manual. also to see if you still get the same resistance between the negative side and the fuel cut relay or cut off switch on the bars.

my reason for asking is that i still suspect that the icm unit may have failed and if it has there has to be a reason as to why, resistance causes heat and heat causes failure. this is the only area I'm having a problem with.

you would be doing me a huge favour if you could check your bike and give me some figures.
