It has nothing to do with the charging, it only senses low water in one cell of the battery.1983 GS1100E, 1983 CB1100F, 1991 GSX1100G, 1996 Kaw. ZL600 Eliminator, 1999 Bandit 1200S, 2005 Bandit 1200S, 2000 Kaw. ZRX 1100 -
True, but I like the idea of turning it into a low voltage warning light. I bet one of the electronics guys around here could throw together some relay / zener diode combo to make it work. When your battery goes below 13.5vdc the relay connected to the light opens and the light comes on.
or something....

I have a 85GS1150. My battery light was on all the time.
My manual says:
Battery Electrolyte Level Sensor
Check the voltage between the level sensor lead and minus (-) terminal of the battery. If the specified voltage (over 3.0 V (DC)) is not observed, replace the level sensor.
In my case - no sensor. I put a piece of electrical tape over the light. Someday I will remove the bulb - or it will burn out.Comment
