Question: Can the safety relay be AFU and intermitently providing a ground to my red/w wire, grounding my coils below a certain rpm, Like on kick start, without blowing the 20 amp fuse and making magic smoke?
Would explain why it runs fine above 2K with voltage on the Yellow, the red/w is not grounded and the coils are powered.
Bike starts and runs fine. Then go to re-start and it just kicks through and every few kicks or so it spits. Finally it starts. It will run if you keep a bit of rpm under it, 1500 to 2 K.
I had narrowed it down to the engine stop switch. Pulled it apart, it was nasty and cleaned it. Put 70 miles on the bike, perfect and would start every kick. Hey, I buy a whole new right elect control from Mike's and install it ( with some effort). No more problems from this, right?
Then I get the Pea Shooters on and can't wait to try it. Off I go on 12 mile run over to son-in-laws. About 10 minutes and time to head home. Got about 30 minutes of day light and don't want to ride in the dark. Hell, no it won't start! It kicks thru and every so often Spits! Got it started and let it drop to Idle and it shuts down. Kick, Kick. It starts and I keep a little rpm under it and head home. Lucky only about three stops to the house. Works just perfect.
Every light is working, Tells me I have power out of the Ignition switch on the brown wire.
But is the engine stop switch getting power from the brown wire running to it? I will assume, for many reasons, nothing is wrong down stream to the coils points and such because Items down there won't affect Both Cylinders at the same time.
So, if it's not the Stop switch... ( and at this check I do have Batt voltage to the red/w wire at the coil connector feeding both brown coil wires and power at the coils. (which is not always true or I would not be having the problem.)
On the same red/w wire out of the stop switch supplying power to the coils, is the brake Lining ind. 77 dosen't have it. Next - the red/w powers the Safety Relay. I have the blue/w to the Start Sol unplugged. But, that red/w is still connected to the safety relay which has a black (ground) and yellow ( Alt signal wire) and a red wire that dosen't show on the wiring sche. but probably relay power.
Talk about a weird duck! I should be able to disconnect the red/w wire at the Safety Relay, which would alievaite any grounding of this red/w wire that powers coils. I don't think the yellow wire from the Alt cares if there is anything down stream reading it or not?
Or just unplug the safety relay all together?
