FLH 1200 1979 Shovelhead, no spark

[Dragstews]

I took out the module and it smelled rather burnish, so I think it's just dead.

Yeah, that's a good sign to bury it....



If your on a tight budget.... Points are way less than a Dyna-S ....

Do think that the coil that is on it should work well with points..
Should be rated at 4.6 ohms or better of primary resistance...

That is what I though, probably my fault..

I found this for points, will be around 60 dollars or so:



What do you guys reckon?

Awesome! Thank you very much guys. Just ordered it, should be here by the end of next week.

In the meantime I wil try to look into some diagrams. The only thing I could find right now is the white and blue from the module to the coils and than the switch to the white cable on the coil. Is this correct or am I missing something?

And where does the killswitch cable go, not really clear on the diagram I have in front of me.

Agian thank you all for the quick help! And I am sorry for the somewhat stupid questions..

What is a kill switch cable????

[882513]

Cable that goes to the Run/Off switch. Cable as in wire.

[Dragstews]

Have ya got a test light ...??? ... Or a vote meter ... ???

The white wire (Cable) that runs from the Run/Off switch to the coil should be hot (Light is on) when the switch is in the run position....
A test light at the coil will tell the story ....

Good Luck .. Pilgrim

Thanks. Just got the points in. Seems to have only one cable.

Guessin the switch wire goes on top of the coil and the PI wire on the bottom. Will install it and set the timing first. Wil let you guys know what the outcome is.

Any tips will be helpful though!
