GAS GAS SM 250 2002 - Lights Wiring Issue Help

[Yammotfra]

Hi All,

Im having a nightmare with the wiring on my bike and i was hoping for a bit of guidance on sorting the issue out.

History - When i got the bike it only had the front headlight (standard) on and aftermarket rear tail light. I put a standard rear tail light on and wanted to put indicators back on which i did. It all worked on initial start up 15 minutes into a ride the indicators would stop working, and lights would work intermittently .......??

I have since changed the lighting, horn, kill, indicator switchgear , as i thought this could be the issue (perhaps i have wired this wrong)

I decided to investigate so i traced the yellow and white cable from the stator and disconnected the yellow cable at the first opportunity and (for testing purposes i hooked up a 12V DC battery positive to the yellow negative to frame, the rear light came on and i saw a flash of power to the aftermarket vapor trail tech speedo and the parking light came on. Then everything went dead and i could not get any power to anything else....have i destroyed my electrics?

I'm in a bit of a mess, would anyone be able to give me some logical guidance on what to do next?

if you disconnect the AC regulator temporarily you can hook up 12v DC power to the yellow lead the stator plugs into to test the wiring. Easier than running a smelly 2T in the garage whilst you fix issues.
I'd say you've destroyed the AC regulator at very least.

Hi, I am now sure its wired correctly the issue i am having is on initial start up the lights indicators etc. will work for say 1 minute then a number of electrical items will stop working all together. Just now everything stopped working apart from the front light...?? any ideas?
