2002 Polaris virage TX 1200cc with no spark

[Ben c]

Hi, I have a 2002 Polaris virage tx 1200cc with no spark, it just stopped dead in the water. I have replaced stator and cdi, still no spark. Any ideas on how to fix this would be much appreciated.. I don’t mind buying new parts, just really want it going

thanks in advance

Welcome Ben

Confirm that your Virage is a carburetor engine, not fuel injected, correct?

What diagnostics have been done?

What is the battery voltage while engine is cranking?

Does engine have spark?

Hold Bilge button down. Bilge pump should run. While holding Bilge button down try to start engine.

Engine voltage says 10.7 when cranking..

No spark at all

Cdi and stator have been replaced at this stage with no luck

I'll try the bilge when I get home tonight and get back to you.

I will also check with my uncle tonight to see what else he has checked (hes just a car mechanic) who also works on motor bikes and slot of older cars.

Last time i rode the ski on the lake it stopped all of a sudden out in the water but i managed to start it straight back up, then as i was heading back in it just died, it would crank over but not start at all. Hope this helps.

Ski was going perfectly fine before this

I have heard there are two wires at the cdi that you can swap over to bypass a sensor, could this help?

10.7 volts is really close to not enough.

A weak battery can confound the diagnostics since even if you change some other thing if the battery gets just a hair weaker then you will not have spark because of the weak battery.
