Resistor in ignition circuit

[derekthompson]

Guys, need some help with an old Bandit 1200, 96 P reg with 60K on the clock.

Problem is no spark.

Checked clutch and sidestand switches, motor does turn over well.

Ignition switch is physically suspect, needs a wobble to switch it on, could it be the resistor? I get no Ohms across the black/white orange/red connectors.

THanks

With the ignition in the ON position, you should have continuity (zero ohms) between:

RED and ORANGE 

BLACK and BROWN

Then test between 

BLACK/WHITE and ORANGE/RED, which should show 100 Ohms

It's true, and common to fail as well try another switch chief.
