Could it be a something faulty in the magneto?

Yep, you definitely have an electrical problem if you have no spark. Definitely go and check all your wiring again, and see if you can identify the problem. If nothing obvious, you are going to have to dig a little deeper. Ensure you have a good earth, and that the circuit is complete. After that you are going to need a test light to trace your problems.

Time to break out the multimeter I think, you can test if the current is passing through the kill switch or not that way and that will be on less thing to worry about, then start check other parts of the circut for faults.

Has your harness got the pink wire? If so is it hooked to the blue and white wire? Is the earth wire from the magneto side hooked into the earth wire on the harness and don't hook the green and red wire up toanything.
