OMG all that relay info is jibberish to me...WTH did not under stand any of that....wow I feel dumb now

[kered409]

Here is what I am getting for ACv:

off the stator:

Yellow=12acv
white=18acv
both at 2000 rpm

at 4000 rpm
yellow=21acv
white=25acv

at the r/r
2000 rpm
yellow=.014acv
white=38acv


at 4000rpm
yellow=.19
white=53acv

whats up with that.....

Should I get a new wiring harness? I have electrical issues,I just want to fix this the easiest way possible.I ony see 1 commen ground point nearest the motor and no wiers are loose or broken.
PLEASE HELP WITH ANY INFO I AM AT A LOSS HERE!
thanks

i would get some good wire and replace the yellow wire it self from what your test readings are there is a break in the yellow wire

[kered409]

I stated to look for a break in the wire and a factory splice in it.It was coverd with e-tape.If it does have a break or got pinched or possibly melted to anouther wire,if I just run a new yellow,wouldnt the old one still be running some kinda interfearence on what ever is grounding that one out? I am going to order a new harness from scrappydog,for under $36 delivered,just route it and plug and play..But after I do that and the lights HOPEFULLY work like normal,I am going to start rewiring all the lights off the battery/key/(rocker switch.going to use a rocker switch so I can turn all the lights off just incase of charging issues)
Thanks for the HELP guys!
I'll post how things go when the new harness gets here.

if you cut it loose at both ends it will be just a dead wire in the harness

[kered409]

I have anew one coming for Sat.Just going to replace just in case my bad luck continues.Dont want it going up in smoke near my car in the garage.

[kered409]

Well the new harness came in from scrappydogs...LOL What a joke that was.I laid it out along side of the bike to see which plugs would go where..This thing had at least half of the plugs totally differant than mine..Not to mention it wouldn't even reach from my CDI box to thr R/R in front of the handle bars and that is streched in the air just about at the bottom of the seat...If it wasn't going to reach that way it sherly not going to reach running under the floor boards..So I figured I would rip the harness apart and just use the YELLOW stator wire that runs to the R/R...NOPE that has a couple other wires splicing into it...I removed the R/R and tryed to just plug the stator wires in and test to see if it changes my light issues..Well it did not I had the same readings as my old wires.I was like WTF is going on here!!! After probing the R/R wires for more volt readings I bumped the wiring harness (stock harness)while the scoot was running and noticed my dash light come on??HHMM So I stated to jiggle those wires and notice it would turn on and off so I pulled the plug apart to look at the male and female ends and long and behold I notice most of the female ends have opened up so The male ends where kinda loose when plugged in.So I took the time to pop out every wire in every plug (Female ends) and gave them all a little squeeze to tighten the fit and after about 2-3 hours of doing that I started the scoot back up and PROBLUM SOLVED....ALL THE LIGHTS WERE WORKING FINE . So any one with Lights that start out brite then fad to nothing,and if you press the brakes and they turn back on but still kinda dim Check all of the female wires in the plugs.

So After I got everything working I spent alot of time wireing the new H4 auto bulbs to the battery.And what a differance in the BRITENESS of the lights.I ended up using 1 relay for the low beams,1 for the high beams and 1 for those smaller clear bulbs right above my headlights.Everything still works off the stock light switch.I put the meter on to the battery and she is still charging.I am going to order an marine volt gauge to hook up to the battery so I can keep an eye on the charging sys.
So all in all I thank everyone who tryed to help and I hope this will help someone eles who has the same prob as I did.
The H4 bulbs hooked up to the b attery work VERY WELL for my 8 mile trek home from work tonight!I would recomend this up grade to everyone...
Happy scootin to you all!OHHH yeah I spent 15.5 hours on this on Sat@ 10:30 am-sunday 2am..Then another 2 hours sunday morning.Then took it for an 3 hr ride with everything working out fine.
