I just bought a 86 454 LTD and I'm thinking my ic igniter is shot sometimes going down the road sudden lose of power and then just like that it comes back again. Starting usually works if not tap it an mess with the wire it will fire up again what does that sound like to u guys? First bike don't know much other than online research. Can u even get a new ic igniter? Thanks for any help in advance.

hi. the first thing I would be looking at is the connector and all the cable ends. the igniters are quite reliable yes they do go wrong but more often than not an issue is something simple like a bad connection. as for a new one. well as the bikes are so old very few OEM parts are available. the one off a GEN 1 EX may fit. but my guess is a loose wire.

Hey guys , I’m new here , but I checked all the circuits and everything was good on the light tests , the only thing left is the Igniter switch. Does anyone know anything about how difficult it might be to open the igniter myself and possibly re-solder the board ? It could be an insulation issue I suppose , but like I said I’m new . I found a few switches on eBay about to pull the trigger but it’s 180 dollars , and I’m not even sure if it might be the stater. Bought this 86 en450 for 300 dollars from an old junker . Thanks I’m advance !!
