broken SEM ICU10 COIL

Hi

Nice job opening them, maybe your friend can make the diagram, if you break them apart.

Never saw one published anywhere.

I get them repaired if you need too although i'm not sure who will want to repair anything that has had the crap beaten out of it.

firstly they are very strong!

they never go except for the following reasons:
the screw/helix post inside for the HT cable can snap off.
you have used an electrex stator. this will keep knocking your coil out...

I don't personally do them! I have enough I know and do now!

Taffy

probably not, probably best to buy another one again....

Hi West

Let me tell you I can also get your CDI fixed and not so expensive. It's not just me, I have professional help.

That been said, the idea of a decent replacement pleases me, specially because I want to keep my bikes running for a long time ! You know that the repair thing it's not really a business, just small hobby, and there is a reason for that, these CDI's are not so bad, they don't brake very much. Not like the stators !! those are really bad !!!

The HPI or electrex replacement has been discussed a lot here (check older posts), the problem for me (from what I have understood) they only have one CDI with one advance curve, that I think it's most suited for the 450 ??
If that makes a lot of difference ?? can't tell
Maybe there will come a time that it's gone a be your only option, but for now I will keep using the old ones.

The idea of making the complete diagram of the CDI it's most interesting, if someone would be interested in striping one CDI completely and maybe ruining it. If that was the case, I'm sure I have the perfect guy to make the diagram, and even manufacturing other one, and probably improve it.

I made a diagram of my yz80 CDI like that when i was 14, It took a very long time

I don't know if it helped to have the diagram at the time because in the end i just put bigger main capacitors in there and more turns on the source coil ... ..

Hi West

No, the repair it's just the repair, no upgrades.
I haven't done that for a while, and I would have to talk to the other guy, but I think it would be around 100eur.

I don't understand why your bike is ruining the CDI's ??? that is not normal, specially if you are using the SEM stator. The one that I have in my 400 already had the problem of the broken screw, but after that fixed (2 years ago) it's been running fine.

Has your stator been rewind ?

Well the project of making the circuit diagram would be interesting, but it would need to be completely striped and probably it won't be good to use again.
