Hello I have been having an issue with a wiring harness on a 85 cb450sc. I have no positive going to the coilpack, nor into the cdi box. I have made a simplified harness and ran my kill switch wire (black w/white stripe) into the black wire on the rec/reg which then goes to my ign on the key switch. Ive went over this harness endless times and cant figure out if i wired something wrong or not. I also have a cb650sc in which i did the same style harness on it and it runs flawlessly. I am also using a coilpack from a cb650sc not sure if that makes a difference. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks
 
# In Volts
From Alternator:
blue- 0
white- 0
Seems that one of these should have 12v
From CDI:
Yellow- 0
Green- 0
I guess the question now is what would cause the Alt to stop producing power? This bike ran and I have not changed the wiring or touched anything inside the case.
 
Turned my brain on finally, and my dial on the multimeter. Turned to ac and everything checked out fine, coilpack is bad no spark checked with original pack and sparks fine.
