Dave,
But I'm Multimeter Challenged. Where do you point them probes (easy now) to
find what's what with the regulator? Bob

Dennis, >

had this exact problem with the Gen.light faintly glowing and batt. not
charging.The gen.would put out when grounding the field.This happened

while

away from home and did not have a multimeter with me.I put in a new
regulator,same problem.Turns out it was a bad ground conn. from frame to
reg.body.The point is having a multimeter in the saddle bag could have

saved

some money and aggravation.

Andy,
Once you get the battery recharged, take it for a short ride at night.

See

if the generator light glows. As you know, when at idle the light will
shine. When you increase revs, the light will go out. If there is a
problem like a poor ground, etc., the light often will glow faintly, but
not
so bright that you can see it in the daytime. Take it out at night and

see

what you can see. I would start with Ian's suggestion first, which is to
check your grounds carefully. Clean and tighten firmly. Check your
battery
terminals. Loose connections at the grounds or at the battery can be
enough
to cause these problems. If no luck there, break out the multimeter and
start taking readings at the battery with the bike off and running.
D.J.

it again, fires up & i go on home. pull into the barn, & she quits

again.

unhooked/broken,

etc. dynomo lite never came on, but when i hooked the battery charger

[out

of desperation], the batt. appeared to be really dead! fried! now i
