So another update with the Trailtech RR.
I have connected a 50v 3300 uF capacitor into the system.
And with the fluke meter on the system the capacitor is charging up slowly ?. Probably reaches 1v after over a minute maybe 2 minutes.
When connect with the lights connected it immediately...
Thanks for that guys.
I got onto trail tech too and they said I do need a load ( battery or capacitor) in order for the Reg/ Rec to work as it shunts DC voltage.
Using an old quad battery lying around I got it working and could see the battery slowly charging away while the bike was running...
So I have floated the ground in the stator and I now have 12+volt across yellow and new ground wire.
This still would not light up the bulbs.
I then ordered a trail tech reg/rec ( 7004-RR150) 150 watt unit.
Connecting my 12v AC + and - wires to the yellow wires on the reg/rec and the...
Yeah I have a standard bulb I think it is 35w / 35w for low and high beam.
I will try go at it again soon and see what I can figure out.
Will also try source a rectifier locally and update here if that works.
Standard regulator not on the bike removed by previous owner along with original wiring harness - I have it but it?s in a very bad way.
If I convert AC to DC with trail tech rectifier and also ensure it is regulated to 12v my bulbs should work without a battery ?
I am just trying to figure...
Yes I have a pretty decent meter that I use for work.
I have 12v AC across the thick yellow wire and ground which is expected.
When I then connect the ground and yellow to the bulb I get nothing.
I can then connect the bulb straight to a small quad battery and it lights up straight away on...
Finally got the bike back running.
I am now looking to wire in head light and tail light too.
I have a 2k3 stator and 12v AC across the yellow and ground of the stator when idling. This won?t light up a bulb for me.
From what I was reading in the forums people seem to have used a trail tech...
Thanks for the reply.
I have gone through the wiring diagram I have everything wired correctly.
Cleaned all contracts and earths and everything is belling out fine but still no spark.
I am going to order a CDI box. I have found one online on eBay from Wieltronics that seem to have sold...
So with plans of reinstalling a lighting system to get the new (to me) gas gas ec300 on the road I took it apart to see what wiring I was dealing with.
The bike was running when I bought it and was test drove when I got home with it too.
Upon stripping the bike I found a yellow and white...
