No Spark, No Start

Ok here is what I have I think it is a Hisun, or at least that is what others have told me.  I have no spark at the plug so I have replaced the coil, the wire, the plug, the regulator, and I have the crank shaft position sensor (have a question about that thing.)  So on one side I of the coil the white black I have solid 12, but on the other side I have 0.  Chased the wire back to the solenoid and when plugged in have 12 until you turn key to start then it drops to 0, so wondering if there is a break in the blue black from the solenoid to the coil, will run a test on that later this week.  But I have ordered a new solenoid because I do not think it should drop to 0 when the key is turned either should push it 12 on both side if it works like most.  So the question is what is going on and what am I missing here?  Any ideas?  The next question is where does the crank shaft position sensor go?  None of the books I have show where it goes and I have hunted all over that engine and can not find the silly thing.  So please help?

Would need more information as to the make or model. A coil usually has a positive and negative and the wiring goes to a CDI, ECM or some other form of igniter.

The pick up coil, pulsar, trigger coil (or whatever you choose to call it) is often located at the stator and is activated by a reluctor on the flywheel or near the crankshaft depending on the type of equipment. 

Sounds like you have a short based on the information provided. 

You will require a wiring diagram and a multimeter to troubleshoot the various components and circuits.

Im having the same problem. My quit changing so i replaced stator. Now i have no spark and no fuel. Replaced coil still no spark. Had cub look up a camshaft sensor they told me it don't have one. Talked to a tech said it dose but i can't fine it. Im looking at ecu but tired of throwing money at it.

The camshaft sensor should be located near stator.  Look at the service manual, it can be called several names, trigger coil, pulsar, etc.

You must test and eliminate each component separately before buying new parts. You will need a service manual and multimeter for testing.

Most of the time, the problem will be small, generally a short on the ground side of the circuit due to corrosion or loose wire.

The problem will require resistance, voltage drop, and continuity testing.

You must be methodical and pay strict attention to detail

Check out the service manual download forum. If you can't find it there, google it.  You will need it to find the problem, the manual provides specifications and testing procedures.

I haven't viewed the service manual for your model. However,  oftentimes, they call a crank sensor the trigger.  This coil is located right beside your stator. Usually has a blue wire, sometimes a green wire as well.  The ones with only a single blue wire ground to chassis.

No I have yet to figure it out, I put it on the back burner for a while had to many other things going on.  So updated replaced the stator again and on a 2k ohm I am getting .19, but I get no power when trying to crank it.  So have the spark is not both sides.  It acts like a safety switch is engaged.  I have bypassed the one to the break but is there another one somewhere?  I have pulled at the schematics I can but so far none show another switch.  Everyone tells me to check the crank shaft sensor, well there is not one that I can find.  It is not where everyone says it should be by the stator.  Aside of pulling the clutch side out and apart to remove all the gears to see if it behind that.  But before I go that far I have looked for wires to give me a hint that its there and can not see any.

So help at this point other than the break where is the other safety switches?  Or am I missing something and should just shoot the thing?

sure but there is only one way to put it in it can not get out of alignment and I replaced the CDI already any other ideas?

Please remember, just because you replaced the parts, that does not necessarily mean they are functional. (Even if they are brand new)

You must systematically test each component after install.

Verify each component is within spec taken from service manual.

Attention to detail is paramount. Ya can't cheat a single procedure. 

Start at stator, verify.

Then pulsar, then CDI, then coil, then plug.

Start at battery, check voltage.

Is it A/C CDI or DC CDI?

      2016 Hisun 500 runs rough no power
      By CapnWalleye
      Just picked up a Hisun 500 that had shift issues (corroded fan gear) which I fixed. It also didn't seem to be running smoothly then all of a sudden it got worse. It seems to miss on both idle and when pushing the gas pedal to the floor and doesn't seem to be running at full power. I've been working with a local person who is walking me through some steps, but I'd like some input from this group as well. What I've done:
      - drained the fuel tank and replaced it with 93 octane fuel and added heet to help with any water problems.
      - replaced the fuel injector.
      - disconnected the battery (several times) to allow the module to reset.
      - set the valve clearance, both intake and exhaust, within specs ... intake was tight but exhaust seemed fine.
      - replaced the battery.
      - replaced the O2 sensor.
      Nothing has helped. Not sure what the next steps are, but would appreciate any expertise that can be offered here.

      2015 MSU-500 crank - no start
      By Prepper
      I'm working with a 2015 MSU-500.  Basic symptoms are it cranks well, but will not fire.  It has spark, and it has fuel spraying out of the injector (and spraying starting fluid into the throttle body and plug hole makes no difference).  It has compression.  I bought it not running, and no other information was available.  It has 775 miles on it and 127 hours.  It looks to be in very good shape.   Previous owner replaced fuel pump, ECU, coil, plug, and the fuse/relay box that mounts on the firewall, then gave up.
      My questions relate to cam/valve timing, considering the symptoms and diagnostics so far.  My thinking was the woodruff key sheared off and the crank spun, making it out of time.  My question is, by the pictures attached does anyone have an opinion as to the cam/valve timing being correct?  In the crankshaft picture you can see a timing mark visible.  In the camshaft picture I have arrows directed towards what I think are timing marks (which appear to be exactly 180 degrees from one another).  However, the long arrow in what appears to be bolt configuration in line with the piston/rod line.  Here is a puzzling note... in the position you see in the pictures... I have valve lash on both the intake and exhaust.  I think it's at TDC, given the visible crank timing mark and valve lash on both valves. 
      Any thoughts ?  Does this appear to be in proper valve time ?  Have I missed anything simple ?  Thanks in advance for your input.

      Black O2 Sensor?
      By Homeowner A
      I've been having misfire issues with my UTV 400 when it gets warm and I've thrown all kinds of parts at it so far with no permanent resolution.  Today I removed the O2 sensor and it is black on the end.  To me that means it's running rich and/or the sensor isn't working.  I replaced the sensor with a new one and will see how it goes I guess.  With EFI, I'm wondering why the sensor would be this way with low hours and mileage?  Is there a way to adjust or lean out fueling on these?  Thanks in advance.

      Code Reader for Delphi MT05 Coleman UTV 400 Hisun
      By Homeowner A
      Is there a code reader available for the Coleman UTV 400?  I tried using the HUD ECU Hacker software and cables/adapters but no luck OBD to delphi 6 pin and KKL VAG as well as ELM327.  Will not connect.  I was able to get it to connect randomly a couple of times, but haven't been able to since.  I was able to clear and read the codes briefly.  I'm aware of the Tiny Scan 301 but it doesn't seem to be readily available.  There's a few out there but they are expensive.

      Wiring 2013 Hisun 800
      By Marie
      hello, i need help figuring out where all these wires go on this battery. I can't seem to find any pictures diagrams. As to what should or shouldn't be attached and where these two plugs go, that aren't plugged in. this was got as a project. would run then die and battery would have to be jumped off to start again stator has now been replaced but any help with this wiring would be appreciated.
