Re: No spark

Thanks, for your reply.

Re: No spark

Looks like that’s the case, I’m interested in any more tests I can do to identify the problem.

Re: No spark

Continuity test on cut out switch shows switch is ok so it’s not that. I do have a multi-meter so any help with checks to try and find the fault will be greatfully received.
Thanks,
Matt
