Hey y’all. I’m honestly lost and feel super down.
- Facts: CBF1000 sc58
- Last thing I did was get my alternator and regulator repaired/changed. My alternator was burnt out. The mechanic said that it’s am usual problem with this model and the regulator is the problem.
- I had to learn to take it out and rebuild it myself. About a month ago, I finally put the alternator back in and my bike actually started! I was overjoyed.
- Since a week now I’m trying to actually ride it again and it won’t start. I recharged the battery (Li-ion). When I tried starting it, the battery kinda drained immediately. It just didn’t start. Luckily, I have a second (gel) battery that was full. I put that in and my bike didn’t even light up. The fuses all look fine to me. The cables should be correct (there aren’t that many options).
I just don’t even know where to start. Thanks for reading
But that’s happening in one month? It started like 4 weeks ago… I wouldn’t even know what connections to loosen. I’ll have to read a electric dictionary to understand your message, but thanks so much for your help and suggestions 😁
It probably wouldn’t have happened in one month, it just got worse until it stopped working.
Battery negative — will connect to the engine. The black cable coming from the battery. Loosen that, give it a wiggle, tighten again.
Battery positive + will have a large red cable, and some smaller ones too. The large red will go to the starter solenoid, loosen that, give it a wiggle, tighten again.
That’s a start.
