K321S no spark

Recommended Posts

As per my thread in the other forum, this is my dead auction win from the other day, a 314-A with the K321S engine. Seems all there, all the wiring looks original and unmolested. 

 

Problem, it has no spark. It'll crank if you turn the key to On and then jump the starter post. But if you turn the key to start, nothing.

 

Before I do something stupid, is there some common point of failure somewhere that will 1)kill the start key from cranking the started and 2) kill the spark?

No power to/thru the key switch.

Looking at these diagrams? If you download the 4-page file one of them shows the start circuit and another the ignition circuit.

 

This one is not what we normally see.

The pto must be off OR an operator in the seat for the ignition switch to be powered by the battery.

Ah ok, I see it has a starter solenoid. (duh).  We piped some gas to the pump (main fuel line is plugged up) put the key to on, bridged the selonoid posts and bingo... runs like a new one. 

So, I need a solenoid and, maybe a new ignition switch if it doesnt hit the new solenoid.

Thanks for that wire diagram.
