I ran into something similar with mine, only I was on a busy freeway when it decided to stop running. I found both wires on the pick up plate had broken off at the solder joint. A shop I deal with ordered me just the pick up plate (about $50 as I recall). I ball parked it into the same place as the old plate and it started right up. I suggest you pull off the point cover and make sure both wires are secure.
