Yamaha SC 500 CDI UNIT..........working or NOT WORKING !!

[Purple Dave]

If anyone has a failed CDI unit off an SC 500, I have found a company in England that can repair or replace them. Finding a unit going or not going is my QUEST.

[JAP 454]

Alvin, there is a fella in Melbourne, who repaired the CDI from one of my Yammies, and fixed the problem, that causes them to fail and I think he has some older units, I'll look up his details and let you know.

Is it Small Coil Rewinds? A mate of mine had his SC ign rewound by them (IIRC) & it completelytransformed it.

[JAP 454]

Yeah, Thanks JC , I sure that's him but I can't find his contact details, Alvin, try googling Small Coil Rewinds.

I'd like to know to Mark, if you could

the 2 models of SC500 had different CDI and the difference was large.Mates swapped theres on there 2 x SC and could not believe power and smoothness.

[firko]

Just fit the entire CDI ignition from a 76-78 DT400 or similar and you'll be thanking me later on Dave .

nah PD - the one I was thinking of was these guys:

Only guys I know that sell parts for PVL's rather than making you buy a complete unit - got some bits for my YZB through them.

cheers

I think Les at VMX Unlimited sells parts for PVL. I bought a coil off him.
