heatonmt Posted November 7, 2010 Share #1 Posted November 7, 2010 well I took the bike back in to the local Yamaha's shop for the third time. It left me on the side of the road 2 times and did at home 1 time. Battery dead again. This is all from when they put the running lights on. I looked and they hooked into the red wire with white line on it. I think that is the ignition wire. the instructions say hook up to the blue. after a new battery a new regulator now they say thats it. we will find out?We have the lemon law in this stat I wounder it goes for motorcycles?

Guest Posted November 7, 2010 Share #2 Posted November 7, 2010 Mine is hooked up to the ignition line too. But its also running through a relay and a switch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LilBeaver Posted November 7, 2010 Share #3 Posted November 7, 2010 For what it is worth, a bum regulator could very easily wipe out a battery. But so could an improperly functioning stator, and a number of other things. As you say, hopefully they've got it licked this time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eck Posted November 7, 2010 Share #4 Posted November 7, 2010 Pull the fuse on the clock and check to see if you still have a draw on the battery using a meter..should have no draw with clock fuse removed and key in the off position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
