Here’s an update on my igniter fiasco.
Triumph replaced the igniter again and told the dealer to remove, clean, and grease all grounds. The mechanic said he didn’t find anything in the grounds that seemed bad but he cleaned, greased, and put a star lock washer on each of them. All I can do is hope this will work out OK. I just don’t have the confidence to jump on and ride anywhere anymore. I’m thinking I’ll buy a used igniter and carry it with me to get me home if I have another igniter fail.
Does anyone out there have a used igniter they don’t need for a poor man’s price?
I just wish Triumph would put their best electronic minds on this problem and find the solution. There has to be an answer as to why there’s so many igniters failing. I also agree with Gina, there should be a way to protect the igniter with something much cheaper to replace.
Wish me luck, I need it.
