You want to be checking OHMS not voltage.
Charge coil = black to brown 590 Ohms
Pick up coil = black to white / red 15.1 Ohms
READINGS CAN BE (+ OR - 10%) @ 68 room temp
Hope this helps

Make sure you dont have a bad switch ( key / kill / tether ) If you look at the wires out of engine one group runs the CDI the other is lights and switches ( unplug this one) Make sure plugs are grounded pull over engine. If there is spark you have a bad switch.
To test coil
HITACHI primary 0.15 Ohms
secondary 3.5 Ohms
Toyodenso primary 0.12 Ohms
secondary 4.0 Ohms
Primary = take reading between coil power (orange) wire and coil ground mount
Secondary = remove plug caps take reading between both spark plug wires

I couldn't find the key for mine its been so long since it was used. Just follow the wires from the ingnition and unplug the harness and everything should be a go as far as the ignition goes.
