I looked at the wiring diagram and it shows it going to the radio, gas gauge(I am guessing this is where it feeds the clock and ODO)CB, it's a red green wire.

He is missed

It's 10A located behind the left side cover.

:rotf:

It is what holds the memory for your trip and clock settings and I think it also holds the radio station memory.

I used the stuff and so far so good and I liked them on FB. Thanks for the post

Before you replace the stator check all your connections: 1. Battery nice clean no corrosion 2. The rectifier plug no burnt no corroded pins and clean and shiny 3. The stator connecter under the battery box make sure it's not melted and the contacts are clen. below is a little more indepth procedure. Specs: Output: 14 Volts / 300 Watts / @ 5000 rpm Stator Coil Resistance: 0.279 ~ 0.341 Ohm @ 68º F Stator AC Voltage Output: 100+ VAC* @ 4000 rpm Specs form a good system. DC voltage up to 20V AC Voltage up to 100+V A fully charged battery should read 12.6 volts. If battery voltage is low charge it before testing the system, a weak or bad could cause false test results. Replace the battery if it will not come to a full charge from a battery charger. start engine, turn off all electrical accessories measure charging voltage as rpm's are increased to 5000 rpm. Voltage should be 13.5 ~ 14.5 volts. Intermittent charging system problems could be caused by a bad connection. If voltage is below 13.5 volts, it could be poor connections, bad wiring, faulty stator, and/or a faulty RR. Higher than 14.5 volts it's probably a bad RR and/or bad connection. Before digging into stator and rr check all connections, battery cables, RR connector, stator connector, solenoid connectors, and main fuse connection. Stator Test Engine and ignition off. Test at the RR connector, you get ot the RR connector by removing the two 10mm mounting bolts and lowering the RR. I had to remove the lower fairing to get to it disconnect the connector and inspect the terminal pins for tightness, corrosion, or damage. Regulator/Rectifier location. Check for battery voltage between connector terminals marked Bat+ and Gnd-. Check the stator coil resistance by measuring at the three stator terminals of the connector. Set the meter to the lowest ohms scale and measure between pins 1~2, then pins 1~3, and finally between pins 2~3. All readings should be around .3 ohms. Some meters may not read accurately at this setting so don’t be too worried if you don’t get exactly .3 ohms. Next, set the meter to a higher ohms scale (>100 ohms), connect one meter lead to a good engine ground and use the other lead to test each stator terminal for a short to ground. All should read open (OL). Check the AC output of the stator. Set your meter to read AC on the 100+ scale. Start the engine and read each pair of terminals in the same order as you did above, 1~2, 1~3, 2~3. At idele you should get 20~25 volts AC on each pair. Increase RPMS to 4000 RPM and read voltage on each pair again. Voltage @ 4000 RPM should be around 100~110 volts AC. All pairs should read equal voltages. If one pair reads much less than the others, or if all read smuch lower voltage than specified, the stator may be defective or there may be a connection problem at the stator connector where it connects to the main wiring harness. If you get questionable readings, you’ll need to retest at the stator connector located behind the side/center covers below the rider’s seat. __________________

Prayers sent

Freebird is going to add a camping section for us.

Book marked

Have seen a whole bunch of both issues latley, for some reason the guys behaving badly on the bikes upset me more than the cages.

Only dealt with a couple of seizures, not sure I would Know what to do if she had one on the bike besides pull over as fast and safely as possible.

Venture Rider Camping Or VR Camp Outs

The thread below has been talking about starting a camping group on the site and I would like to see if it is possible to add a camping section? http://www.venturerider.org/forum/showthread.php?t=82334

I get the impression her's are not well controlled yet since she is not allowed to drive. Will definitely have to have a good talk with her.

I have a friend who wants me to take her on a bike ride when I go back home for the weekend but I am worried that since she suffers from seizures it may be too risky. I once heard flashing light will set off a seizure and since riding by trees this time of year reminds me of a strobe light it would be even more dangerous.

I would agree it needs tightening.

Sorry to hear about the warden, will keep yall in our prayers.

The S1 S2 and S3 you see are for the opener switches and the crystal on the borad is for the transmitter section.

Its a garage door opener the chip on the prefbord reduces the voltage to a level uadable for the opener youcan tell where they soldered rhe leads to the batyery contacts

I have Dish network (I know you asked about Direct TV) and they have good customer service and I think it is easier to use but I think they treat new customers better than old.

Nice to see you getting a little recognition for doing good things. By the way how was the spaghetti?

Wonder if they would take 2 99s with 50K each in on trade?
