richyrich Posted April 13, 2017 Share Posted April 13, 2017 So i had a moment last night doing sixty on a30 when all the electrics died. For a second i could see in the dark like batman or some shit. Anyway now It starts in neutral and everything works, put it in gear and ignition is stopped but lights work, and the koso speedo does funny things. Earlier yesterday id 'tidied' the loom abit, pulled about, ziptied it abit. This happened before in the garage so changed the neutral diode and worked for a few hundred miles. Twenty year old diode, fair enough. Sidestand neutral circuit fails somehow in the dark at speed, better sort this out properly wtf Anyone any thoughts? Quote Link to comment
Gixer1460 Posted April 13, 2017 Share Posted April 13, 2017 Get rid of the damn thing! That, clutch and sidestand switch = no end of potential problems. KISS - keep it simple stupid! 5 Quote Link to comment
richyrich Posted April 14, 2017 Author Share Posted April 14, 2017 Can i just unplug the neutral switch tho? it will think its permanently in gear and not start. Or if i earth the loom connector permanently neutral, and the diode is still live and a week link. There never was a clutch switch and the sidestand loom connector i.plugged into its earth ages ago. How to remove the whole circuit back past the relay nicely and somehow keep the warning light Im sure this all started with the koso clocking clocks Pics of spaghetti to follow Quote Link to comment
Captain Chaos Posted April 14, 2017 Share Posted April 14, 2017 Mmmmm....... spaghetti..... Quote Link to comment
badger Posted April 14, 2017 Share Posted April 14, 2017 If they keep blowing up check your voltage going it to the battery. Eltrobobbins should really blow up on a regular basis Quote Link to comment
Gixer1460 Posted April 14, 2017 Share Posted April 14, 2017 Without stand and clutch switches, the diode pack is definitely surplus to requirements. Simplified system is orange / white from kill switch to feed coils and ign ecu only and blue from neutral switch up to neutral light in clocks which should have power to the other side of it...... the neutral switch, switches to earth when out of gear. I'll check wiring loom diagram later to check if i've missed something. Quote Link to comment
richyrich Posted April 14, 2017 Author Share Posted April 14, 2017 Nice one gix1460, thats good info on neutral warning light, probly capable of getting that working. theres lots of oranges going to the relay before the diode. do you mean one of them? Can i leave the relay in place and itll just work maybe. Id prefer to lose a pointless relay but dont want to cut and splice all its connection. Next week when the bike and diagram is in front of me i'll have a crack at it Quote Link to comment
