I am new to the site and have a motorcycle ignition module that I believe is bad. I don't know if anyone here has any knowledge of ignition modules or not but I figure it is a type of electronics so I will see if anyone here can help.
The motorcycle it came from is an 81 Yamaha virago xv750 if it helps. The ignition module is a TCI, transistor control ignition, I think is what it stands for.
The problem I am having is one of the cylinders is cutting in and out, and I have narrowed it down to the TCI.
I have attached a photo of the tci. each transistor grounds and opens its own ignition coil once each revolution of the engine up to probably 7,000 or 8,000 rpms.
Based on that kind of usage what would be the most likely things to wear out. I am planning to change the transistors and wondering what else would be good to change.
thanks for any help from anyone.
