CDI box

Not allowing power through your ignition circuit

would that also make no live at the kill switch and key too?

Most definitelt especially if your coil is good. The cdi is giving nothing to the coil to make sparky spark. Theres a place in edm called canadian motorsports im not sure what the number is but ask for Clarence. He should be able to hook you up with a cdi that you maybe be able to plug in and try if it doesnt fix the problem you can take it back. Verses buyin a new one your stuck with.
