Reg/rec wiring

<< < (3/3)

Lkp:
Thanks for the message mate.. This is the one dss sell for this bike.
Not one I've used myself in the past

Bryanj:
Just because they sell it, and import it from China probably, don't mean its gonna last long! if you can remember the size of the Zenner diode on the 70's Triumphs and the heat sink that was doing the job of "shunting" extra charge to ground.

I have seen combined units that alter the power to the field to alter output and personally I think that is a far better system, if you are into electronics I have, somewhere, a circuit diagram for such a unit, Steve had a 500 with Yamaha cast wheels that the builder designed the circuit for

I have the Rick's reg rec which has the same colours.

Red is constant 12v
Black is switched power
Green is ground.

I have been told that you can connect the green to the alternator green ground wire, but not sure how they would both be grounded then...

As far as I can see, the Electrex regulator (RR24) for your bike also has a white wire that goes to the field coil so I would say David Silver sent you the wrong one. Possibly!
