Motorcycle Repair: Suzuki TS100
QuestionUnderstand may not be you area of expertise, but wondering if you could point me in right direction with electrical issue I am having. I am restoring the bike which only has 2000 miles on it. Bought new battery and charged up, but when I hook it up, I have no lights anywhere. I can start the bike. I have power to the ignition switch and then back out when I turn key on, but that is where I have trouble finding any issues. Fuse is good. Any help where to start looking would be appreciated.
AnswerWhat model year is yours Rob ? And does the brake light work ? Usually it is off a different circuit than the actual lighting. If the harness is in good condition and everything is connected up then in the early 1970's model there is a resister in the line from the magneto. Check the dark green lead from the magneto where it connects to a short lead going to a green with white stripe wire in the harness that feeds to the on/off connection on the light switch. If the resister is blown, then the whole lighting circuit will be dead. Hope that helps.
