Hello,
Does anyone know if an Ignition Control Module can be tested for proper functionality? I am only getting a spark from one of the two plug wires. I have the unit out of the bike and would like to find a way to test it.
I'm not sure of the Ducati part number, however listed below is what is written on the module:
Ducati Made in Italy
32408012 51 01
4010696 1
This unit has two spark plug wires, one coming out of each side of the unit. When on the vehicle, it is only putting out a spark to one of the two plug wires, the right side. I have tested the left side with several new spark plugs and a spark test light, there is definitely no spark. I used the same test methods on the good side just to make sure my test methods worked properly, and it has a good solid spark. I did not find any loose or disconnected wires. I spoke to the dealer's mechanic a few weeks ago, and he recommended that I replace the ignition controller. So I ordered a new ignition controller, but the problem still remains.
Any ideas of how to trouble shoot this? Could the problem be caused by a component that is prior to this unit in the electrical circuit? Is there anything I can check or test? Thank you for the assistance.
