    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

ElectroSport R/R question--1978 GS1000

I've installed a new ElectroSport stator with three yellow output wires on a 1978 GS1000. These mate neatly with three yellow wires coming from the ElectroSport regulator/rectifier I installed a few minutes later.

The R/R has, in addition to the three yellow wires, a black ground wire and a red wire that ElectroSport's instructions tells me, confusingly, connects to a red wire from the stator.

My question is, where does this red wire coming from the R/R attach to?

Thanks.

Hey Jack, I recently went through the same exercise except with a Rick's stator and R/R. There should be a red wire in the wiring boot that your original R/R attached to. Maybe it slipped down where you don't see it. I think they're all pretty much the same but you need to find it. Good luck!

The red from the R/R goes to the red lead that the old R/R hooked up to (or in the case that you had seperate regulator and rectifier) the red lead that went to the rectifier.

Ah, that would be the red wire with the sizzled connector . . .

Why couldn't the directions for the $120 gizmo be so straightforward.

Thanks for the help, Frosty, Chuck. The GS Resources is genius!
