    SH775 Installation for Dummies

    The replacement rectifier is also known as the Polaris 4012941. You can find them on Ebay. Search under either number or for an Indian Scout FTR 1200 rectifier. Polaris wants close to $400 for these new in Canada - nuts. RIcks sells new ones for $200 (not sure about the quality). You can get...

    SH775 Installation for Dummies

    Red wire in harness with green and white (going in and to the light switch) and red and white (coming from the light switch). These wires can be tucked away and are not required.

    SH775 Installation for Dummies

    This week I installed the SH775 Rectifier/Regulator and wanted to thank the forum for the assistance. I wanted to add a few details that may help the less experienced complete this task. On my bike there were 5 wires coming out of the stator - two yellow, two blue and white and one green and...

    I installed the SH775 but need to know how to replace the circuit at the light.

    My stator actually had 5 wires - Green/yellow, two yellow and two blue and white. However, the two yellows and the two blue and whites are connected in the harness. I cut one of each and now have 3 wires. The spits are shown on the schematic.

    Color wiring diagram for a 1979 GS1000?

    I would love to get a hold of a colour wiring diagram for a 1979 GS1000 if anyone has drafted one. Thanks.

    I installed the SH775 but need to know how to replace the circuit at the light.

    Interesting Don R. I am not sure about yours but someone messed with the wiring on my bike and I an trying to fix it. A tell tale sign is the crappy automotive connectors and loose electrical tape joints.

    I installed the SH775 but need to know how to replace the circuit at the light.

    Another thing to note - on my bike there were two yellow and two blue and white wire coming from the stator but they are connected in the harness. For those who have not done this - cut one of each.

    Thanks pdqford! The schematic is great.

    I installed the SH775 but need to know how to replace the circuit at the light.

    Heck - the E/S and L are all wired that way and it wasn't mentioned in the mod instructions. Perhaps someone should add it for clarification. Someone not familiar with bike electronics may have a tough time.

    I installed the SH775 but need to know how to replace the circuit at the light.

    Ok - thanks - I guess each GS1000 model is wired differently.

    I installed the SH775 but need to know how to replace the circuit at the light.

    Here is the schematic. The white and green leaves the centre of the stator and comes back as white and red and an input to the rectifier. ​

    I installed the SH775 but need to know how to replace the circuit at the light.

    I just figured it out. The white and green wire runs from the stator to the light switch and then back to the rectifier as the white and red. When the light is switched "on" the bike will charge but will not when the lights are turned off. I am not sure why it was wired this way. I have a...

    I installed the SH775 but need to know how to replace the circuit at the light.

    Thanks - I already installed but wanted to know how to replace the circuit at the light that requires the white and red and the white and green. The white and green wire was used in the rectifier and the other is not being used.

    I installed the SH775 but need to know how to replace the circuit at the light.

    Hello. I just completed the SH775 mod but am wondering how to rewire at the lighting switch since the white with red and white with green wires run to it. I used the white with green wire in the new rectifier an the white with red wire is not being used. That circuit is shown on my schematic...

    Tachometer Problems

    Tachometer Problems

    Hello again. I inserted the end of a cable and used my drill to test the tach. It did work but so slowly that it took almost 30 seconds for the needle to register the correct RPM's. I think there is something wrong with the tach. It should register immediately.
