High Charge Electricity

cutting yellow wire can
cutting yellow can cause over charge to your battery...yes its right but there are some rewiring to be needed for the yellow cutting wire...you need to install SPDT RELAY to your rectifier to be come auto on/off...cause w/o this it might cause overcharge and make your battery lifespan short or otherwise your cdi too..find a good elect. mechanic to do the job...
sir, can you post or can someone post a diagram so that I can DIY it? really dont have/know a good mechanic electrician here in SAGADA. Fortunately my riding buddy has an extra relay and we may be able to fix it.
 
tap a wire on spdt relay no.86 from positive line of your headlight or hid..it would trigger the fastcharging rectifier once you open your hid light or headlight...

My headlight has 2 yellow wires, so does this mean I have to tap another wire to one of the yellow wires to no. 86 of the SPDT?

made a mistake earlier, lost my internet connection and i was only able to get a pic of the SPDT diagram. what I did is I tied the wires of 87a and 30 and the yellow wire together. Already here in manila, nothing strange happened and the battery was not drained. would there be any problem if I tied those three wires together? and disconnected the other wire for the rectifier?

yes sir...youre fast chargingwill not work and will drain your battery soon...87a and 30 shuld be tied on both end of the rectifier yellow wire you cut...

so far the battery is not drained, drove for 18 hours straight, both headlight and horn were working perfectly unlike yesterday, I drove only for about 30 mins and the horn won't even work. but i'll rewire it after I get some rest. BTW, the I tapped the 86(headlight switch) to a green wire that's connected to the headlight instead of the wire that you showed on your pic. I think its also for the switch bec when I removed it the headlight didn't turn on. Is it ok to just leave it there or do I have to connect it to the wire in your pic?

its a negative line sir...it should be tap on the positive line of head light cause the relay wont work w/o the elect.supply

it is because you are in fast charging rectifier but it doesnt have the controller...

I dont know but it actually works fine, because when i switch in the headlight the relay makes a clicking sound, same thing when i turn of the headlight. so doesn't that mean that the circuit is complete and working??

IT IS CLICKING BECAUSE YOU TAP A WIRE IN 87a BUT IT DOESNT MEAN THAT ITS WORKING SINCE THAT 30 IS NT ATTACHED ON THE OTHER YELLOW CUT WIRE...ANYWAY ITS YOUR MC,JUST OBSERVED SIR.IF ANYTHING GOES WRONG THEN THATS YOUR FAULT...MY ADVICEIS FOLLOW THE DIAGRAM FOR THE PEACE OF MIND...;)

i understand, i just shared the things that i observed. BTW 30 and 37a are tied up together with the yellow wire that i disconnected, and the other end of that yellow wire which is connected to the rectifier is not connected to anything. I know that your diagram is correct and have nothing against it, I find it a bit odd why my battery didn't drain eventhough the wirings where incorrect.

Please help , kasi po pag mabilis ang takbo ko humihina ang HID ko or minsan nawawala pa sya ,at ang horn ko himihina din po..saan po kaya ang problma ng MC ko sa stator na po kaya or wiring or retifier...


safe drive thnx..

sir based on your post I have some comment, you said that you did not connect the other yellow wire on pin 30? correct me if im wrong, In this yes you will have a fast charging activity your HID, horn etc will operate correctly but do take note you have no overload protection while on fast charging since you did not connect it to pin 30, the purpose of this is to switch your charging to fast(hid on) ang normal charging (HID off). But in your situation you are on a fast charging mode even you dont switch on your HID, dont take risk because this might kill your battery because of over charging.. IMHO,:)
