Hi Brett and sorry to hear of your problem.

Lots of info about the neutral light and switch here but, if your starter is turning the engine over it must be OK so you need to look elsewhere.

You have done the obvious by checking the connections but here is a page from the workshop manual with 10 procedures to follow:

Have you a copy of the workshop manual so that you can see the various voltages, resistances, etc., to be checked?

If so, you will need to borrow a multimeter and then run through the checks.

Don't overlook the kill switch they can give a bit of trouble if full of dust and moisture  did it play up after it was washed

i put my brain and multi meter to work, and the manual. the coil read .5, and the the secondary coil read 15, so does this mean to get a new coil?
