I have a problem that has me very frustrated. Last year I put an 860 kit on an Skidoo 800 that I bought used (never ran it). I could not get spark even though all tests in the manual were within specs. I replaced the MPEM with a brand new one that I had reprogrammed to work with the 860 kit. When that was done I had the temp sensor, DPM,and DESS removed.Still no spark. I then replaced the wiring harness (the motor came with a custom harness by Dave Trygstrad) with a used one. Still no spark. I replaced the stator. No spark.I put a brand new wiring harness in. Still no spark. I put the project on hold due to frustration. This year I purchased a '05 800 complete with wiring harness, Mpem,and Dess. I tested it on the bench to make sure it had spark. It did with it's MPEM as well as the 2 other MPEMs and the other wiring harnesses I now have. I now put the 860 kit on the '05 and reprogram the MPEM for it. I install the '05 motor in my Rev and presto no spark. I now make a trip to my dealer with 3 MPEM's in hand and try them on a stock sled. All 3 MPEM,s start the sled on the first pull. I head home knowing the boxes are not the problem. I plug the ,05 box into my harness and voilla it starts first pull, three times and then no spark. Another trip to the dealer to make sure I did not short out the box. The stocker starts first pull. I have ground jumpers from the chasis to the engine, to the to the main harness ground. All test are within specs. Now I will recap all the parts I have. 5 wiring harnesses (1 brand new)
3 stators (1 brand new)
2 complete motors
2 sets of trigger coils
2 skidoo ignition coils
1 Msd coil I had anyway
This will probably turn out to be some simple fix, but I am done spending money on parts just to try them.
