Stranded, Help! (1 Viewer)

I unplugged my igniter doing some work, and when plugged back in, it won’t start. Cruiser turns over but won’t start. Tried a different igniter, still won’t work. Can’t see any lose wires, connection good. Help appreciated...

Check that you are getting 12v power to the igniter if you are sure the connection to the distributor is good. EFI fuse good?

As stated above, check fuses (kick panel and engine compartment)

I think I figured it out. The wiring harness may have a lose word that connects to the igniter. I placed it back on its mount with it plugged in, a,d now it runs again.

Nothing like a minor momentary panic to get the blood pumping.
Glad to hear things are sorted out.

The igniter is grounded through the mounting bracket. If you have it floating, it won't run.
