Clocks start spinning and bike wont start?! - SV650.org

12-04-06, 11:17 AM

Help... has anyone ever had this problem. The bike starts but the fuel light comes on even though it has a full tank. The clocks start spinning randomly, the headlights make the dash lights go out and the whole thing fades to nothing and wont run... I have left my bike on the street as I needed to go to a meeting and its far from home. Any suggestions.

I have recently changed the regulator rectifier and the front indicators to flush fitting ones.

Any advice?

Cheers

Loose connection on the front loom?

Thanks for that. By the front loom, you mean what I attached the indicators to?

Its funny, this is the first time Im doing any of this stuff myself as I have always been scared of touching it. I like it though. Thanks for the advice.
