Suddenly Stopped Working!

You sound like you know everything... At this point, why don't you go elsewhere for help
You came here asking for help and all we get from you is a nasty attitude when we make suggestions that have been working for everyone else for years. A new CDI is no guarantee that it's good given the quality of the parts available. Your non running engine is not our problem. Google is your friend, use it.

Alright, listen, Steve, I've rigorously tested the CDI with a multimeter again, and it's absolutely showing no issues. I'm here asking for help, not to engage in endless back and forth.
A multimeter wouldn't play games, right? So, while I get the suggestion, it's pretty clear the problem still isn't with the CDI. I'm determined to get to the bottom of this.

We are offering you suggestions that have worked countless times over the years. If they are not working for you then you have a unique problem that no one has encountered and when you find out what it is we all be interested in what it is. Once again a reply with an attitude. That no one can help.

I don't even know how to use a multi meter on a CDI, I would just swap it with a new one
It's the best way in my book to eliminate the CDI as a problem
I found easy trouble shooting is to swap electrical parts to eliminate those as a problem
BTW I test new electrical parts on a bike before I put them in storage, so I know their good
Yes I have had new CDI right outta the box be bad

I was just sharing one of my stories of how unpredictable a CDI can be
Maybe my story can help another member who is reading this thread
I'm not saying your CDI is bad
Having new extra electrical parts for troubleshooting was just a suggestion
Why don’t you just figure it out then? Yeah, use some brain. You know? Maybe sit and think about it, make a list of other things that could go wrong etc. ya know, figure it out?
No he will figure it out. He knows better than us anyway. It’s not his carb or CDI he found out with pure mastery of thought patterns. I think he’s fine.
