    I've noticed several questions about trigger coil output. Hot tip: a regular dvom will provide inaccurate readings. You must use a peak adapter. The signal is must too fast for a multimeter alone to capture. Hope this helps.

    Your vid helped me a lot with my Buddy 125. It turned out to b a failing pulse coil. The little one that times the spark. It has been going bad for quite awhile. The scooter would start and run perfect. But when it was pretty hot after a long up hill run it would cut out just a little. Then it would b fine for a few days. I even would go on 50 mile trips. Then it started dying more often. It would often seem to ohm out ok. Finally, it would stall and barely run. It the ohmed as open circuit. I replaced the complete stator and it is fixed. It was an intermittent problem that finally got to the point where it quit. Total pain. But very happy it is fixed. Thank u for that great diagram and video!!

    Maybe a stupid question. But is there a difference between negative ac and dc ? The green wire from stator (ground) is connected to the frame/engine/chassis, but also connected there is the dc negative from battery. So its ok to have both AC and DC ground on the same place ( engine/frame chassis etc).

Spark seems fine, I replace the coil/spark plug and wire. I've had problems with the air filter system clogging easily. Now it simply will not start and seems to not be getting fuel, or the mixture is bad, not sure what to do next. Any suggestions would be appreciated! Ken

    Hi Ken, yes it definitely sounds like you are having an air-fuel mixture problem. I would start by inspecting the carburetor to see if any gas or perhaps too much gas is getting to the intake. If not I would remove the carb and thoroughly clean the inside (bowl, jets, etc). A replacement carb is cheap enough as well. If the engine was running before this probably isn’t the problem but you could possibly have a compression issue.

    I have to disagree. i got a replacement carb for a GY6 engine at $20 shipped. the old carb had sat for 4 yrs and i couldn't even get it apart. I'd have to drill out the screws, re-tap, even before getting to all the dis-assembly, clearing, adjusting, re-assembly. Its the same reason many locksmiths just replace the core of a lock instead of picking, dis-assm/make a key by hand/re-assemb. Hell my nap time is worth more than that.

    Some pick up have 2 wires, the blue/white and a green/white. What is that green/white wire for, it leads to the cdi next to the ground but it is not grounded to the chassis or to the battery neg cable, as it enters the cdi it exits the ground solid green wire via a resistence of about 1.6-ohms. So if you ever wanted to join these two wires as a single ground you will be doing so without the resistence of 1.6-ohms causing your pick up to fail. Any ideas?😮.... And the reason why you may want to join these two wires is so that you can use a DC cdi in place of an AC cdi in the case that your exciter windings burn out while on the road, instead of having to change your stator you can just use a DC cdi until you get home.???

    Kyle, I have a 2021 EZGO Valor with a 150cc (KYEFI) Kymco GY6 EFI engine. It will not run, and this is a common problem (with no fix) among other EZGO GY6 owners. Issues: Lights will not come on, and engine will not start. The horn and backup alarm will work, but they're hardwired straight to the battery that's perfect (verified by shop) with 12.6 volts. I changed the ignition and that fixed it, but as soon as I parked it, it wouldn't run anymore. I changed the ignition again and that fixed it again; however, one day later and it stopped running yet again. I bought another ignition, but that didn't do anything. I bought a fourth ignition and nothing. I can run a wire across two of the four ignition terminals and the lights come on, but it will not run. Do you have any suggestions? Any help is appreciated. If you want to use my cart to repair and make a video, let me know (I will still pay you too.) There's a lot of people who need help. The dealership will not share anything and their apparently charging an arm and a leg if it's not under warranty. Any help is appreciated. Thank you!

    Hey Kyle, I've come across a scooter (150 Purfetti alto) that idles rough and bogs/stalls when accelerator is advanced while on center stand. There is a new carburator, coil, spark plug and cdi module on it. If you take the the air filter off and slightly cover the intake tube with your hand the engine performs much better which indicates a poor fuel air mixture ratio but I don't see any way to adjust it. Any ideas? Compression is 125 psi and leak-down test indicates 9% loss which are both good readings.

    Definitely sounds like an air-fuel mixture problem. I would go through the carburetor and check the jets. You may be able to find more details on the carburetor from google specifically on where the mixture screw is. Also check for tears or leaks in the intake boot, sounds like it is getting too much air.

It is a double chain setup it doesn't feel crazy at all when I roll the machine like the chain is binding and it is tensioned properly I'm kinda stumped my next step would be replacing the chain but definitely feeling lost with it

    I have a 150cc gy6 engine that runs great after it warms up, but it takes a few minutes to get warmed up. It seems that the electric choke is not working. How can I tell if the choke is not working or if it is not getting electric to it? The electric choke has about 8.5 ohms resistance. The electric wires going to it come from the voltage regulator. How do I check to see if the proper voltage is coming from the voltage regulator? I thought about taking your advice and buying a new carb w/the elec choke on it. But, then would I have to buy something else?

    In the case of a 50cc two stroke scooter with AC stator, if the CDI is faulty the power wire from stator, usually the Black wire with red tracer, will not generate a power feed to the CDI giving the impression the stator is bad. A good working CDI excites the stator to generate around 48 volts AC a faulty CDI will not. I'm pretty sure the four-stroke non GY6 Chinese CDI's are the same such as found in the 100cc Quad bikes etc

    We are trying to troubleshoot an electrical problem with our Baja BR-150 Go-Kart, with little success so far. It died while running it, and now when you hit the key to kick it over you can hear the solenoid click but no engine turnover occurs. We've replaced the rectifier, CDI, solenoid, starter motor, coil, sparkplug, but that didn't solve the problem. Voltage from the CDI power- in terminal to ground is ~12 V, but during attempts to crank engine the voltage from the CDI power-out terminal to ground and the starting motor-to-ground are only ~5 v each. We're thinking it may be an ignition switch problem and have ordered one but it has not yet arrived. May be a stator issue, but that requires getting into the engine flywheel area, and we're hesitant to do that. Any ideas?

    Hey. He briefly mentioned in the video but you could also be having a faulty kill switch issue. Those things can leaving you chasing rabbits all over that motor. Since you have changed everything else it seems, changing your ignition switch also doesn't hurt at this point. I maintain a lot of go-karts including some fairly older models and I don't usually see stator problems. Hope that helps.

    Try isolating the CDI. Test resistance from the ground pin to the rest of the pins within the CDI. Based on your description of the problem, the CDI has a short to ground or the capacitor is failing. Is it an AC or DC CDI?

    Hi J Rockner, I believe the choke is powered by AC directly off one of the stator windings, this should be the white wire i believe. AC is applied any time the engine is running. To do a quick test on this I would remove the auto enricher (choke) and connect it to a 12v power source and make sure the needle is extending. Should actually work with AC or DC

    Hello! Once you have visually verified that there is spark by grounding spark plug to chassis or engine and cranking, then I would check your engines compression. If you plug the spark plug hole with your finger there should be enough compression to blow your finger out (if you do not have a gage).

I have tried many different things including using a screwdriver to bypass everything and go straight to the starter and then it tried to start (unsuccessfully). I am very sure the problem is electrical but I can't figure it out. Any reason it won't try to turn over when I turn the key?

    Hello Carter, it could be one of a few things. Most likely is the solenoid has gone bad and will need to be replaced. But it is worth checking the wiring between the key and the solenoid for breaks and also check for any safety switches your kart may have. There could be a broken switch to ensure the brake pedal is pressed to be able to start the engine. In my past experience this problem usually comes from the solenoid though. Thanks!

    @@kylecrowder6940 Thank you for responding, when I got the go-kart (2 months ago) I quickly realized that the wiring was old and corroded, so I bought a new wiring harness with everything in it including a new solenoid. I doubt that it is bad because it isn't very old. I did leave the original stater on the engine thought because it had the correct connections and I may have been a little lazy at the time. I doubt the old stator stops it from at least trying to start though. I know that the key is connected though because when I turn it the brake lights (not installed) get power. Therefore the key is connected to the harness, any other ideas? Again thank you SO much.

The pole (idk what they are called the things that stick out of the solenoid and one goes to the starter and one to the battery) the pole that goes to the battery gets a strong 12v when I turn the key, the pole that goes right to the starter gets 0v. Now that I type this out it sounds more and more like the solenoid is bad. I was hesitant to assume it was bad because it is new(ish). They are only like $5 I guess I will buy one.

The cdi on mine gets power from the inverter regulator. The 3 yellow wires going to the inv/regulator are ac current but when they come out its a three wire plug green n red n black. Green n red go to cdi as 12volts. The black doesant go to anything. Im so damn sick of trying to find my info. I cant believe these chinee pump out a million of these junk bikes but not one manual
