Check other cables and connections.

If no spark occurs even now, remove the short-circuit cable from the connec- tion point in the carburettor compart- ment.

If the plug now sparks, the fault is either in the stop switch or the short-circuit cable.

Change the switch as needed and check to see if the cable insulation is damaged.

The stop switch is easily reached when the cover is removed.

Use a screwdriver pinch the switch’s snap fastener inside the throttle.

Still no spark?

Check the spark plug connection.

Remove the spark plug cover and make sure the ignition cable is not damaged. Remove a segment of cable if required to get sufficient contact at the connec- tion coil.

Still no spark?

Check other cables and connections for poor contacts (dirt, corrosion, cable breakage and damaged insulation).

Make sure that the cables are correctly drawn and lie in the cable grooves.

Do not forget to check the cables in the throttle too.

See chapter 3 “Throttle”.

Tip!

Use an Ohmmeter in order to easily check if cable breakage has occurred, due to pinching, for example.
