Whelp, once again: Is the New Charge Coil OEM or Aftermarket?

For Reference:

"The Rental Guy I sometimes work for had a few 62T skis with very weak spark. His skis are some of the most worn out skis on the planet. The Charge Coils had resistance readings somewhere in the low 400 ohms range so he ordered 2 WSM charge coils that needed ground wires made up and once again he had great spark. Each WSM coil lasted about a week and would come back open (infinite resistance). He then purchased Yamaha OEM Charge Coils which read 540 ohms new and with these the Spark would jump to Ground from about an inch away!"

Word to the wise.

I responded, it's aftermarket and probably a China special. It ohms out 437.
In my mind, I want to blame the cheap charge coil. The OEM charge coil will be here next week so stay tuned. I'm just going to rebuild the old one.
Thanks for that valuable info about those knock off charge coils.

It was the stator!!! Installed the OEM charge coil to the old stator and Rev up first try.

I had no experience with Chinese knock offs. I worked for a dealer years back and we only used OEM parts. It was my brother-in-law who was riding it when it happened and he bought the parts. I finally ordered the charge coil from Yamaha and it worked. I was right the whole time because I didn't like the workmanship of the Chinese stator. Here's what he bought. I may make a post about this experience later to warn others.
Thanks to my stand-up community's will to help others. Keeping my sport alive.

Jets ski are like computers garbage in , garbage out. 9 times out of ten you are better off with a used OEM part than a brand new Chinese made crap.
