Default Looking for CDI(?) igniter for Jet Ski '96 JH1100

Hi,

The guy working on my Jet Ski said he thinks it needs an igniter, or igniter
box, or he said it's sometimes called an electronic control unit...I believe he
said it has four wires coming out of it and it's part of the ignition system.
Does anyone know what he's referring to that can tell me the correct term(s) to
search for? Is it a CDI module? Can anyone suggest where to look for the lowest
price for one? So far I haven't been able to find one at all.

Thank you for any help!

You need a new mechanic. Any experienced person who works on those
engines will know where to get one. Local dealer perhaps?



Take the old one to the dealer. They might have a bit of test gear that
can check it out. If it is bad, they will have the new one in stock or
order one for you.

I'd hate to put my boat's ability to run in the hands of the "lowest
price" ignition part, if it isn't OEM.
