    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...

    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.

Which wire/connector for battery sensor

:?: I just got an '85 1150 which didn't have a battery with sensor. I got a new battery and sensor but I don't know where to plug the sensor in. The sensor has a red or pink lead. There is a green wire in a connector close by, is this the place? Can I hurt it by trying it out?

Thanx,
Mark
 
Is it the original sensor from the bike or maybe came with the battery?
Reason I ask is on both my 1100s the sensor wire is green (the one on the loom and the one from the sensor).

Should be easy to test though. First check if there is any voltage on the green wire before you plug in up to the sensor, with the bike running. If not, it shouldn't hurt anything to try it and see if the battery indicator light goes out.
 
The wiring diagram shows a green/blue wire on the sensor.

Thanx!

:D Thanx! It was the green wire. The shop I got the $35 battery from gave me a sensor that was pink/red. But it works great.
