Reply To: GV 250 No power at dash

[Hardy]

Hi Simon

So  i just went over the bike again checking connections etc, but found nothing.

Had the battery on the charger but before I put it back in I checked for continuity between the neg and pos battery connectors and turned the key on and off showing that was working to get power. Put the battery back in but still nothing.

I decided to try the old push start and it started right away. However the lights on the dash kinda flickered so I started to tap the connectors and tried different controls horn, signals. I pulled in the front brake and the lights got brighter, disconnected that but no fix. Forgot to turn on fuel so it stalled, rolled the bike back to push start again and noticed the regulator was kinda warm when I sat on the bike because I had the seat off.

I think its hotter than it should be only running for about 5 min.

Will try to find test for the regulater.

Any shared wisdom would be appreciated.

 

Thanks Hardy
