Could be shagged coils, but both at the same time not likely i guess.

As you are sitting on the bike it is down to your right next to the clutch housing take off the front cover then there will be two screws to undo then just ease it towards you and follow the lead up and unplug
Hope this helps

before investing in a new one, check it for resistance with a meter. I am sure the electrical manual on this site has a vlaue it should read if all is ok. Only replace it if it does not measure ok.
