Nc29 Electrical problem

Post by lee-nc29 »

can some body please help?

i kept getting a flat battery so i got a new one fitted it started lovely, however it only lasted one day then it was flat so i charged it back up tested it the reading was 12.6v started the bike and left it running for 10mins tested the battery 12.3v even at 5000rpm it reads 12.3v. if i turn the lights on it drops to 11.7v as soon as i turn them off it goes back to 12.2v/12.3v.
I've checked the wires they all seem fine how do i test the rec/reg and alternator?

thanks,
Lee

i believe haynes can explain how to test your reg/rec, sounds like this is the problem. or take it to your local and get them to check, i recently had same prob stemming from putting incorrect bulbs in and had to replace reg/rec, battery and starter solenoid. but yes those volts are way out.

if you are getting no charge rate what so ever then it is more than likely the reg rec thats faulty.

With all the electrical problems I have been having I have done a lot of searching and found quite a few useful links. This one is good

http://www.cr-x.org/cbr250/forum/topic. ... C_ID=31226" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

One of the guys recommends an R1 reg/rec.

Anyone heard or tried this?
