Zx12r no sparks

Hi all.

I have a 12r with a 1287 kit, cams and a few other goodies...it was making 202rwbhp, but now it will not spark.
Any ideas folks? I'm tearing my hair out ...

Ok.After a fight to get the coil stick out and disconnected, there is power to the coil with ignition on and no power with ignition off...so thats good.
So, what do i check next and how?
Cheers all

you lost me with your coil statement.......there are lots of electronics on a zx12r that can cause no starts.get the manual and trouble shoot step by step.

So you have spark,so it`s not getting any fuel. Is the fuel pump cycling when you turn the key on?

It's prolly a module such as a regulator or rectifier.... Remember if it doesn't get certain voltage then it won't fire...

Electronic issues are worse then haveing sex w. a dirty hooker... Because at least i get some enjoyment!!!

No sparks at all, (fuel is working)
there is a 12 volt feed to the coil, just wondered how to test the ignition pick ups? and how.lol.

Unplug and reset the large white connector behind the battery box cover. Do this with the ignition OFF. You will hear a "click" from the reset at the gauge cluster.

This will reset the coil pulse signal from the ECU.

At any point did you have any or part of that system unplugged with the key on prior to the problem?!?

I dont think I have, but cant be certain. I unplugged and reconnected it when I put charging leads on the battery.

I've just done it again, it clicked but still no sparks.
I have tested the ignition pick ups they are 430 odd ohms, the cam sensor I had to move the dial 5 times to get it back in scale, seems to be 1.3 something ohms, but way way more than the pick ups,,,,,,is that right? or is the cam sensor dead????

You would get an FI light if any sensor was dead.

Check your cam timing on both cams again!!! Are you 180 degrees out?
