markfoggy Posted April 1, 2018 Posted April 1, 2018 Anybody got an 1157 / Blandit power out plug that they can stick a picture up of pls? I'm planning loom without having access to a lump and need to make sure that I'm doing it something like right. No original wiring, so can I just plumb the +ve and -ve direct to the Battery terminals? The power out is rectified at the Alternator, but I can't remember if it slices out for a feed into the live side of the loom into a main fuse or not. Quote
markfoggy Posted April 1, 2018 Author Posted April 1, 2018 Oh I am trying to make sure that I keep everything OEM on that side for plug and play if I ever have to add another Alternator at a later date. Quote
dupersunc Posted April 1, 2018 Posted April 1, 2018 The small wire needs to go via a switch. Ideally the ignition switch. Run it through a small orange light in series, so you have and ignition/charging light too. Quote
markfoggy Posted April 1, 2018 Author Posted April 1, 2018 So is just a live, signal out/take off? Or have they buried a solenoid in there that needs to see ignition live from the battery before it makes any output? Quote
markfoggy Posted April 2, 2018 Author Posted April 2, 2018 Perfect, now why did I not think to go digging in the Vault. Many thanks. Quote
MeanBean49 Posted April 2, 2018 Posted April 2, 2018 For a race loom, the red off alternator goes straight to the battery, the orange is a switched live. I normally have one switched feed for coils and cdi, i put orange wire into that feed after the switch 1 Quote
markfoggy Posted April 2, 2018 Author Posted April 2, 2018 It's going to be going into an M-Unit, so will be bit of a head-scratch. I think maybe having a chat with M-Gadget will clarify things, but planning a space to fit a solenoid somewhere is invaluable. I really am running out of realestate, so I need to be thinking ahead. As it goes, the Yam starter solenoid that I am using will probably swallow it cause It has 15A switched circuits that I Do Not understand. I am So shit at modern bike lectrics. Thanks folks. Quote
MeanBean49 Posted April 2, 2018 Posted April 2, 2018 Oil cooled lectrics are simple. Can do them with about 5 wires 2 Quote
