This procedure describes the diagnostic process to determine the cause of a no-start condition on the Seca II. This procedure is aimed at diagnosing a no-spark condition.

What You'll Need:
  • A good quality multi-meter that measures voltage, resistance and continuity. I use a Harbor Freight 14-function multimeter and I quite like it.
  • Digital calipers
  • Set of feeler gauges
  • Length of 18 gauge wire to use for a test lead
  • Patience!


Troubleshoot Procedure:

Begin at the top and work your way through the procedure. Repair/remediate problems as you discover them until your no-spark or intermittent spark condition is remedied.
