Any way I can test this for a spark ?

[lakeyboy]

Just got given an ms201t for 20 notes as my friend smashed it up and then got a new one, top handle completely busted.

The master switch us missing but is there any way I can make it spark without the switch?

I might be wrong but I think the circuit is live unless the switch is in the off position to earth it. It should be live with no switch so as long as you can connect the wires.

Pulled it over but no spark tried bridging the two metal springs as well ?

Sorry mate, I'm already at my knowledge level with that one.

If there's an earth wire on the coil disconnect it then try pulling it over with the plug earthed against the cylinder. If it's bright daylight you might struggle to see the spark.

As felix said it should spark with an open circuit.

Pull the on/off switch wire off the coil and give it a pull and see if you have a spark then. The wire could possibly be earthing out somewhere if its been smacked around.

Nope still no joy even hung onto the plug and not even a tickle

Try taking the coil off and sanding the bottom of it and the mounting surface. Not familiar with the 210t but there may be an earth wire to the cylinder block which needs to be present if the coil is mounted to plastic casing.

I'll have a bash at that mate thanks for the replys both of you

Still no joy
