I have a 2001 fat boy and trying to locate the Ignition Module? Not getting spark and have replaced coil. If anyone can help me locate the Module, would be greatly appreciated

The one on my 2000 Fatboy is under the seat. Looks like this... http://www.ebay.com/itm/HARLEY-DAVID...0052%26ps%3D54

More than likely it could also be your CKP (Crank Position Sensor)

Changed module out and checked crank sensor and that seems to be good. I do not have a manual and trying to locate a picture of electrical circurt and see if maybe run switch may not be working. Is there anyone online that may have one that I can get?

Thanks

How did you check crank sensor ?

There is a method in the EDM for checking the sensor but sounds like you dont even have a FSM let alone the EDM

Sorry got ahead of my last message, I didnt check the crank sensor but another guy stopped by and said he did but not sure how he checked it. trying to locate a manual so I can perform test. The module I did changed out as well as coil. I was wondering if the run switch wasn't making contact when turned on.

Thanks for the information. Is there a way to test the CKP with out having breakout box. I have meters and scanners for automotive but none for Harleys. Might have to look at investing?

It would be cheaper to buy the part. And I bet the CKP is the issue. I have a 2000 and it just failed one day. Or find a bud with one you can swap it out and see if the bike starts.
Also, you have a Cam Position sensor too and I had to replace mine. If that is bad bike is really hard to start.
