Question:

motorcycle battery problem?

Hi! I have a problem with my motorcycle. before when I turn on the ignition, even if the engine is off, all lights such as brake lights, turn signals, and even volt and fuel gauge would work. Now it won‘t work, i have to turn the engine first before it would all work, and I‘ve notice that all turn signal light blinks fast. but when I throttle the gas while in neutral then use the turn signals, they blink normal. My motorcycle wont use its battery power, i checked the battery and i works fine and its not broken. i think its the wiring problem. but i actually don‘t see any disconnected wires?

Answer:

I'm wondering if your rectifier and/or voltage regulator are playing up. You don't say make, model or year so I can't be more specific.
Take a meter and consider the voltage whilst the bike is working--must be about14.5 or so with the severe beams on at approximately 4000-5000rpm's. in case you do not have a get admission to to a meter,recharge the battery and stick it in the refrigerator overnite then take it out and spot if this is going to initiate the bike.looks like a foul battery yet a voltage attempt will tell the story.
