Yamaha Kodiak 400 no fire from coil. No power going to coil . Changed all fuses I could find! Battery shorted on frame and bike cut off and now no spark

1. I'm not suggesting that this is definatly the fault
2. But id check it first

SOURCE: 2005 kodiak can't get it spark already changed

it sounds as though you have a loose wire, start the bike as normal but as you do gently wiggle the wires near the kill switch and ignition ,if the bike starts and stops you know you are close to the problem also check the earth contacts on the coil to frame are good and replace the plug as this is cheap and not so uncommon.
