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
Glad to help, try to keep us posted whether you succeed or encounter difficulties.
Well it always takes me forever until I get the time to work on it. I think I just measured all of the things you mentioned. Nothing beeped. Again, the battery is draining by the minute. Again I checked the main fuse and it’s fine. I’m measuring all kinds of things and don’t really know what I’m supposed to do with it. I measured the beeps with the battery connected and it beeped with basically every metal part. I measured resistance with the battery connected and got about 7 ohm between the battery and the metal parts. The DVM manual says it should be between 0-1 ohm. I don’t know anymore. I think I will message the mechanic who repairs the alternator. But it’s been really long now
Something should’ve beeped, that indicates a disconnected ground connection…
