Another helix 150 no spark

[slider]

Hi everyone I am new to buggy master. I just traded for a helix 150 6150 and it has no spark!!! I replaced the stator, trigger and coil. I can hear som kinda sound from the cdi but not sure exactly how to test it??? would love ride it

BTW have traced and retraced every wireto no avail.

disconnect the kill switch and check for spark.

i have the same problem with mine and bought a new cdi installed it and it popped almost instantly did u find your fix if so can u share the info

[BuggyMaster]

you mean the cdi popped as in you blew it? What you need to know about the Helix is that it uses a DC based CDI box. That is unusual. Most other buggies are A/C based so if you put an A/C based CDI box on, it won't last.

I am still sitting on the same problem. I was hoping Buggymaster was gonna give some more info but I have not heard back. Let me know if you figure out what is wrong and will do the same. I have another guy working on it now who knows more than I, but buggies are not his specialty either.

yes it blew about 1 min after plugging it in

[jayafeely]

look at coil wires connectors they have the connectors mounted so the water goes right into the boot were the conector is. what they think ya drive in sand in pennsylvania. an ya never get them wett or wash them ,there poor desihgn on the 6150 is bad the RND team lost the challenge to make a good kart
