Re: Lost all battery power

Chris

Thanks for the advice, I have removed the headlight and checked the ignition terminal all seems ok, no loose connections.

Perhaps the switch is faulty and I may need to replace it. Do you know if there should be a 15amp fuse in the headlight shell.

Regards

Vince

Re: Lost all battery power

Hi Vince,

There are no fuses in original setup, I did add a 20amp fuse to my worrying for safety.
You should check with a volt meter that you have battery power up to the ignition switch on one wire. And that when you turn on switch the power goes out of the opposite side terminal. Then when cranking (if your bike has electric starter) another terminal should go live.
If you don't have power up to the main error on the ignition switch from battery, then check under the seat and the flat plate that has the rectifier and voltage regulator fitted. Could be a loss quote connection there.
The wiring circuit is quite simple one and typical problems can be the spade connectors.
