I think I wired it up correctly during the frame off, but it doesn't keep a charge. The "Gen" warning light stays on. I think it might be the voltage regulator. (If it has anything to do with the charge) I'm new to this stuff. :rolleyes:

thanks graemlins/thumbsup.gif

Do you have a wire from battery (-) to the right inside fender? Did you install the ground strap from the regulator body to the core support?

Thanks John. :D graemlins/thumbsup.gif
Turns out I have taken the fenders off a few months ago and repainted them and forgot to connect the ground strap from the fender to frame and thats why it wasn't keeping a charge.

thanks again! graemlins/beers.gif
