Keyswitch/ignition '65 CA77

Post by RJag » Thu Aug 04, 2005 8:01 pm

Hi All,<br /><br />I finally got this bike started for the first time since I got it... however, I found that I had no spark unless the key switch was in one of the two off positions.<br /><br />This switch has five positions with two where the key can be removed, and it is only in the &quot;off&quot; positions where there is spark. <br /><br />I checked all of the wires hooked up to the switch and they all match the wiring harness colors. I have power to the lights if I have the switch in the on position that is for engine on + lights on, but no spark.<br /><br />Is there a relay or something somewhere that may be hooked up reversed? Or is there a common change that someone could have done to make the bike run without a battery that would have made this change? (there was no battery when I got the bike).<br /><br />I hope some wiring wizard out there knows what is going on...<br /><br />I am kinda lost on this problem!<br /><br />Thanks<br />Rick
