I've got no spark, changed Ignition module, coil and bypassed bank angle sensor. It turns over fine but no spark to plugs. Any help would be appreciated, thank you.
1. When did the no spark first occur?
2. Did you perform and modifications to the bike prior to the no spark condition?
3. What are you using to test for spark? An inline spark checker?
4. Have you checked the spark plug wires?
5. Is your VOES connected correctly?
6. Have you checked all your fuses and behind the fuse block panel (#14) for corrosion?
7. Did you use OEM parts for replacement or aftermarket?
NOTE:
The above information, while credible, is worth what you paid for it and should not be considered gospel.
Do due diligence, research and have a H-D Field Service Manual before working on your bike.
You will probably have many opinions and suggestions presented; make sure you research the person providing the helpful information as there are some who provide good information and some who speak out of other orifices with gibberish. You will figure out this quickly.

I think these are key questions as well as....
3. What ignition module did you install?
CoolBreeze's other questions are also important but I think what people are trying to to figure out is if you changed the ignition/deleted the bank angle sensor because of the no start issue or was this something that happened only after making these changes.
It's been debated, that some years need one plug in to see the engine slow to fire. Put front one in. I am not familiar with bike,but free and easy to try.
I have been able find older manuals cheap on eBay.. I can't remember if that year electrical manual for big twins and xl. Little more money maybe, but 20 years old. People have sold the bike already. Manuals I got under $50 shipped looked unused

bypassed the bank angle sensor, pit oem ignition module and coil, new plugs and wires, just about replaced just about everything, actually a shop replaced everything. The no spark started after repair wires to the tail light wore through.
Also a shop has had this bike for 12 weeks and they say they can't figure it out after replacing the ignition module, coil, plugs & wires the module under the seat and so on.
