VN BT1
I am the owner of a VN BT1 and have been doin it up for quite some time and spent a considerable amount of time and money on it. Recently I started the engine up and had it idling, all good, then it just shut down all of a sudden. I tried to start it again and it just winds over but won't fire at all... A mate gave me a brand new ignition module as he said that it sounds like the problem as it's an old car so fitted that but still won't fire, another mate gave me a new hall effect module so I fitted that and still won't fire. I bought a no if light kit, no injector pulse, and definately no spark to the plugs, I put a multimeter on the coil and the voltage reads exactly 10% of the voltage what the battery voltage is when i tested that (battery at 12.60v and coil shows 1.26v)... I have never really played wif efi engines before and dont understand why I'm havin this problem or how to fix it...

Do you have a wiring diagram?
Sounds like something isn't switching power to the coil. And also no batch fire signal.
This could both stem from a distributor issue or dissy plug issue.
P.s is your profile picture the engine in the VN?

Yeah mate that's the engine in my VN. And no I dont have a wiring diagram, electrical really isnt my forte... I'm all good with the mechanical stuff but my knowledge of electrics is severely lacking... I've spent a lot of money on this car and 10 years of throwing cash at it and in that time its spent less than 6months on the road...View attachment 203856
