    I'm an idiot. This is my first Harley, but the wiring is joke.And my thoughts itch, just a headlight.Tell light and some turns signals.Wait chickens, but your explanation to it is awesome.It really made it clear for I have a working thought in my head about it so thank you so much

    On my 85 Sportster I went positive terminal on battery, to starter, then to a 30 amp circuit breaker, to an ignition on/off toggle switch, to my coils, and my points went to my coils as well. Rectifier went straight to my positive terminal. I have that push button on my starter, the solenoid push thingy, the starter tries to start then just dies. As if it’s not getting a lot of power to turn

  • @rickyduckworth2838
    @rickyduckworth2838 3 года назад

    I have a problem with my 79 sportster. My positive battery cable melted and shorted out and killed my battery. I fixed that and it was running great. Then my engine started cutting out a little bit. And died. I turned the lights off with the ignition switch and it ran ok. Now my head light don't come on and my tail light blinks off and on real dim. One of the breakers or whatever they are attached to my rear fender clicks on and off and it makes my tail light do what I described above . if i turn the head light off with the head light switch the tail light stays on and if I disconnect the head light wire and reconnect it and turn the head light switch back on it will come in for a second and go out and thats breaker starts clicking and my tail light blinks off and in real dim every time that breaker clicks. What can I do to fix that. If you would help me out with this is really appreciate it. Thank you my email address is rickyduckworth@gmail.com or you can text me at 928 575 9860 thank you very much for any help anyone can give me.

    I'm currently in the process of installing an electric starter on my 76 XLCH. The kit from V-Twin leaves much to be desired when it comes to instructions on what wire goes where. Your video looks like it may help me out a lot. I'm not a stranger to wiring schematics but someone at V-Twin could have put some instructions together... better yet a VIDEO!

      Ok I get it thanks alot. I do have one more question my regulator is the kind that mounts on the end of the generator.(c.c. rider) so there isn't a bat.+ connection just a wire for power. So I would just wire to here basically the same like you explained. I'm assuming your using original OEM regulator. Just dont want to mess up my regulator. Thanks again.

    • @jfields1134

The tinned copper also resists corrosion adding to the life of the wire. and the outer jacket is resistant to alkali, abrasion, acid, gas, oil, flame, and moisture.
