Diff'rent Strokers

Hi Guys n Gals,

when I bought my AR125, it didn't have a horn, or the bracket to mount. I soon sourced replacements and fitted them yesterday but found that no sound came from it.

I checked the norn, by putting 12v across the terminals and it worked fine.

I dismantled the switch and checked the resistance, when the button was depressed and that worked fine, so it would appear there's a problem in the wiring itself.

When I next have a day off, I'll take a good look but I wonder if anyone else has had similar problems, which may speed up my progress?

Hi Guys n Gals,

wel I stripped down the lefthand switch gear, put everything back again and would you believe it, the bloody thing burst into life!

So while on a bit of a roll, I decided to see if the replacing of the exhaust gasket would result in a proper seal being made and, would you believe it, it did!

I cranked her up and she soon ran to a very steady idle, which made my day.

Next I found that the brake light worked, as did the instrument lights, headlamp dipped and main beams but not the tail light. So I guessed that one of the tail light bulb filaments had failed. However, when I went to put the bike back into the garage, I turned the ignition key one detent too far, to find the parking lights came on! WTF?

So it looks like more electrical tweaking will be required tomorrow.

Hi Shaun,

I know it is matey but why wouldn't the tail light show when the lights were switched on but worked when set to park, if you see what I mean?

Hi Guys n Gals,

I disconnected the wiring harness, clicked it back again, and it all came back to life!
