My Summit just died while riding in a meadow and now it has no spark. I haven't had a chance to troubleshoot anything yet, does anyone have any suggestions where to start? Thanks.

Checked the obvious? Tether not keeping engaged, key switch/kill switch? Check all wiring connections that they are together and tight. Spark is usually pretty easy on these sleds..

Ever had a coil or stator go bad? Checked the tether/key and kill switch everything is good. I had a problem with the tether/key last year but when I pushed it down pretty hard it would work. It would always run at idle just not accelerate when this would happen. Is it possible it could cause no spark if this is bad? Thanks.

i have had this problem twice and it was the stator both times
good luck .

Stator is a common problem on this sled. Check the obvious first- DPM tether, kill switch, all wire connections etc.

I have 4000 miles on this sled that is recorded. I had a broken spedometer cable for two seasons so maybe 1000 more miles than its showing. I guess it could be the stator. If I don't get headlight when I pull it over I would guess a stator, do you guys agree??

head light part of the stator is different than the ignition part from what i understand. On my sled my ignition pulse sensor came loose and broke caused a no spark situation just something else to look at

Thanks. I still have to T/S the problem just wanted to get a list together before I start. Eliminating one thing at a time works the best from past experience.

Hey man, i had the same problem with my 1998 X 670 also, it would run fine for a half hour, then die, wait 10 or 15 mins for it to cool off and it would start right up! The stator was a hard part for me to find for my sled, ski-doo quit making the part 2 years ago, so the place to look for one would be a junkyard, or you might come across a dealership with one.(Thats only if your lucky)

I had a my 98 loose spark once. Mine was the coils which were about $85 USD and if fixed it. Stator is equally as likely, you can get stators rewound for about $150 USD. I've had it done for a fourwheeler by RM stator no problems.

I have a parts sled that I share with my friend that I'll grab the coil and stator from. I think it's one of the two or possibly a broken wire somewhere, (god I hope not). Thanks for your help guys!
