Hi Steve,
I endorse Terry Seaver's comments regarding possible broken wires at the
multi-pin connectors between the ignition modules and the coils. I had a
mag failure after ~380 hours and found this to be the problem after
talking to Kerry Younk at Lockwood Aviation. The wires break at the
bends just before the tiny cable grommets at the connectors and I
located the breaks by doing a check with needle probes on my continuity
tester. The repair of these was quite awkward and I was happy to let
Lockwood do the work.
Cheers, John

hi,
a freind of mine with a new 912S on its first hour of flight has had a
magneto / ignition module failure, it is the lower of the two labeled
module "B", i have lent him mine so that he can complete the test flying
of the zenair, as the motor is about 2 years old, rotax will not honor
the warranty, anyone come across this and is it common? i will be taking
a hacksaw and avo to the module should he not get anywhere with Rotax,
