    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.

Gotta love po's ... now how do I fix this?

So we are rechecking connections to see if we can finally sort out this voltage problem (replaced r/r, tested stator-it's good, but volts not rising when bike is revved). Wife was messing with some wiring and noticed some wires going into a 4 pin connector with lots of tape over them. Took off the tape and this is what we found.

Don't know if you can tell, but the wires have been cut, stripped, and then just twisted together and electrical tape put over them. Nice! I am planning on soldering on some blade connectors and then hooking them into the other side of that 4 pin connector. Is that my best bet?

To give you a better idea, here is where it is on the bike. It is the ignition wires that go into the other side of that connector that you see (coming out of the boot).8O

Thanks!
 
Step 1. Get a wiring diagram for your bike. BassCliff may have the manual for download.
 
We have a wiring diagram! We are good friends with it-lol We just couldn't believe what the po had done!

I am happy to report that the problem is fixed. Just crimped blade connectors on and they slide right in. Also sorted out charging problem!!!!!! Charging the battery and might actually get to go on a ride tomorrow ... and not have to push it home!
 
That's great news, wolfman....and even greater that your wife is working on this with you. How cool is that?!?!
 
That is very cool (the wife) my girlfrien loves to ride, so better than nothing I guess. I had a fire that burned my wiring harness so 90% of my wiring is brand new and I STILL had to sort out problems with the tiny bit of wiring not part of the harness from both age and crappy repairs by the PO.
