98 slth has no spark

[ond_southsideofchicago]

bought a 98 slth not run. The engine turn over fine( battery at 12.22v), gas is flowing. I sparyed starter fluid in carb but will not ignite. b I remove the spark plug and grounded it but no spark. I have read some posting with the same issues and cdi and stator keep showing up. also fuse. My question is , how do I test a cdi and stator and where do i check the fuse(location of the fuse box)

Use a side tap on the ground(black) wire at the soleniod, run lead to a real ground point. Put a toggle in the middle of this "new" circuit. Mount somewhere easily accesible but somewhat obscure. Leave it off until the bike wont go (turn starter when warm) then flip switch to on and continue on your journey !
You can read all the absurd fixes you want but this is a final!
On the Genesis the disply controls the switching mechanism. This overrides ALL that. However, you will need to revert the switch (toggle) to off when your are parking or the silly code lock will not work. I bet this fix applies to ALL affected models. Good luck and enjoy!
