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
Easy check is disconnect negative from battery, set the DVM to continuity (the beepy mode), check that the DVM works first (make a beep), then test the connection between batt negative, and:
That’s the critical stuff.
Thank you. I needed that explanation.
Glad to help, try to keep us posted whether you succeed or encounter difficulties.
