6 pin CDI diagram

winnipegmike · 04-28-2009, 06:59 PM

I am trying to fit a cdi box from a 200cc GY-5 engine to a different application. Does anyone have a pinout diagram for the standard 6 pin cdi module? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
P.S.
I used the search, but could only find the 5 pin diagram (which was excellent by the way!)

EDIT: its the 4 pin + 2 pin CDI...thanks!

I've prepared a rough (very rough!) photo showing both types of CDI and the pin relationship as well as the usual colours used and their function. I've uploaded it here:

There are adaptors made to fit a 6-pin unit to a 5-pin wiring harness, like this:

There's nothing rough about that diagram, forchetto. Thanks for taking the time.

Is there a difference between the two CDI boxes (other than the obvious shape and configuration)? Would there be a benefit to one over the other?

The one on the left is the usual monkey-pit bike CDI used on lots of bikes as standard. The one on the right is the POSH performance CDI used on a lot of scooters and some upright engines up to 150 cc or thereabouts. Internally they're compatible as long as you use the adapter.

Is the POSH CDI a worthwhile investment?

It's working well on my Skyteam ST110-6 with a LIFAN 107 cc engine. It's only subjective, of course, but it seems to accelerate a lot better, no flat spots and the pick-up is a lot sharper.

The place (in the UK) where I got it from will shortly be testing a new one that's reckoned to be better than the POSH one and has promised me a sample unit to test.

They're also developing a performance CDI for my Qingqi (Qlink XF200GY), as no-one makes such a thing and I feel there's a market for it. (Me, for a start...). They have a good relationship with a Chinese performance CDI manufacturer and have asked them to develop one.
