Honda Spree and Elite 50 Forums

they do not work, i just put a new crank shaft in my spree runs great. all the lights work fine but the head light and the bright indicator light on the dash. when i first started the spree the head light worked then died down. last night the indicator light would work, as i reved it it got brighter. today it doesnt work, i checked the buld its not blown. i went threw to find a loose conection in the dash they all seem fine. then i checked the wires that come from the altinator where they all connect they seem fine... the only thing i can think of is when i didnt the crank shaft work, there is 3 wires that go threw the case and connect to the altinator yellow, white and black/red (i think) i had to cut them and i used crimp conectors to put them back together, as goes for the other 2 wires that go into the bottom of tha case and connect to the small piece of the altinator( not sure what its called) i crimped those together too. if i had a back connection down there could that cause them not to work ?

the only thing i can think of is when you crimped the wires back together..how was it done? did you hook em up right(same colors?) is the ground wire grounded?

ahahah yeah i did it to the same wires, i think one of them might be f-ed up and didnt make a conection

that would be my guess. pull on the wires on the opposite ends of the connection (dont get macho with it), and if you pull one apart re-do it

damnit i dont want to take the altinator off again.. i taped at all the wires, so ill have to get a gear puller again to get the altinator off the spindle so i can see !!!!! stup[id headlights...is there a fuse or anything for the headlight... i dont think there is

im sure there is but as to where? i dont know

lets get myspree in here thatd dude seems to know everything

ha ha he thinks he knows everything but really he is still a noob..

well would the scooter not run at all if one of the wires from the altinator had a faulty conection ? or could it be possible that if one was not conected it would cause the lights not to work ?

ok i checked the connections that i cut and they are fine, it still does not work !!

wiring is tricky. id bet u got a bad wire somewhere. my 84 i had to run a new power wire to the dash cause it wasent getting power there.

your regulater is blown, you need a new one. seems liek your running withougt one ( cuz its bad ) and it will work untill it blows. then the next day you will sart it and it wont work. i have no extra so you can get some from mopedman.

well mopedman where are you i need a regulator stat !
