Went out next day and it would turn over but not crank so I took spark plu out and grounded it to motor and no spark last year I replaced Cdi , ignition switch , and coil I have even put the old stator on te see if that made it spark as ther was nothing wrong with the old one and same thing so I checked volts to Cdi with ignition switch on meter set to dc and I have 12 volts , I checked blue wire with white strip while cranking on low ac volts and get nothing I have diss connected kill switch I have also checked all grounds in harness and Thay look tight
Help please before I set this thang on fire lol
Thank josh

You got it a couple of weeks ago, but you changed out the CDI, ignition switch, & coil last year?
Uhhh, OK....
So now you changed out the stator, even though it was good, it ran one day, but won't run the next....
1st check you fuse, and fuse holder. Those cheap little glass fuses can look goood, but still have a loose end cap, and will not allow any amperage through, though they will test good with voltage for continiuty.
2nd...you changed the stator. Check for a pinched wire, where it bolted down. IF a wire was pinched, simply freeing it, may cure the problem, it may not, the wire may now be broken inside the insulation.
You say all your connections "look" tight, then I suppose you did all your checks, and they are tight, no need to dwell on connections.
BTW, a well charged battery should have between 12.8-13.0 volts. If your test meter reads 12v, with no load, it probably drops below 11v with a load, which will not supply enough amperage nor voltage to keep things going...so I'd suspect either a bad battery, or a fault in the charging system you needlessly changed out.
