DT125R FORUM

@SpookDog The stator is not the problem, something else is. I changed the ignition coil and measured the current going thru the source coil and it was 0.2 - 0.4 Amp, does that seem right to you?

It says "0.23 ±" so i asumed they meant 2.3 ohms. Either way the ignition coil is wrong?

@SpookDog I've the one with a lot of small ones and one larger. I looked a bit but i can't finde anything that is shorted. I checked the ignition coil and the primary is 1.3 ohms, it should be 2.4 according to the manual. Could that be the problem?

@SpookDog i used wire that is made for this. But it shouldn't get so hot that it burns of, but it does. I wonder if anyone else has the same problem. And i cant find anything that is wrong. Could a faulty ignition coil draw excess current and burn it?

Hello, i have a Yamaha dt125x 2006 that i bought about 5 months ago. It didn't have any spark when i bought it, thought it was a simple problem. I trouble shooted and found out that the source coil was shorted. I wanted to save some money and i didn't find a new one so i decided to rewind it. It worked for about 2 km and then it burned. But i tried to reewind it a couple more times but the same thing happend again. I tried changing the cdi but it didn't make any diffrence. As a last effort i tried to rewind it with 0.2 mm wire instead of 0.1mm and it worked for about 4 km so a little improvment, but then it burned. I can't get my head around it ! The electrical system looks completly stock aside from other indicators and the unrestrictor wire grounded.
Does anyone know what the problem is or should i try to change to some sort of race ignition?
