Swag Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 Yeah, I broke my cap and the wire going into it on my RT. Looking at the BMW maint DVD it called the sparkplug cap a Coil is that what it is? I called Irv Searver they have the parts, I will pick them up in the morning, at $250. So I got to the end of the spark plug wire where I thought the coil should be and it comes out of the wiring harness not connected to a coil...am I going to have to splice the three wires together, or is there somewhere to plug the wire in. Thanks Link to comment
Huzband Posted November 25, 2009 Share Posted November 25, 2009 The coil is IN the plug cap. Link to comment
lvnvbiker Posted November 25, 2009 Share Posted November 25, 2009 Or the "plug cap" is really a stick coil. There is no "plug wire" in the traditional sence on these bikes, rather the coil is attached directly to the plug and the trigger wires are run to them. So, yes you broke a coil. Those attachment points are notoriously easy to F up, especialy the little retaining clip that keeps the trigger wires from slipping out. Link to comment
