Connect the neg lead of the LED/test light to the second wire from the bottom, on the TFI plug and the other lead to 12v. Crank the engine, if the LED/light blinks your PIP/TFI are good and your coil is bad. IF the light doesn't blink, connect the neg lead of the LED to the top wire of the TFI plug. Must use a LED for this test.Crank engine, if the LED blinks, your PIP is good and your TFI is bad. If the LED doesn't blink, your PIP is bad.

Good luck

As Zip said, use a 12 LED for the PIP test. Also, when you checked for 12V at the TFI, did you use a DMM or test light? Use a test light, not a DMM.
