My brother has a meter that reads it but i dont know how to use the damn thing and he dont remember either... It has so many settings i dunno what to put it on

 

dan ill come over and show u how to use it when u get home from work gimmie a call dude.

 

The next DC (dashes and solid line) voltage above 12 (usually 20). Attach the black lead to ground (bike frame), and touch the red to whatever contact\wire you're testing.

If you built the board yourself, you'll already know which lines will have power, and when. So, you're just working your way backwards making sure the power is where it's supposed to be.

 

ha figured it out...my wiring was jacked up...

 

Alright, I have been eyeing this thread for a while and winter is coming. All of it seems really far over my head but I am going to give it a shot. It can only be a cheap mistake.

First I was wondering, how many lights are in the brakelight and turn signals? Does this method put orange lights in your brakelight or just light up one side of your brakes for a blinker? I would prefer to get LEDs if I went through with this. Where should I be getting all of this stuff also?

Thanks

 

It just lights up the left or right bulb in the brake light, no bulbs are added when doing this mod as instructed. I got my stuff between NAPA and Radio Shack

 

Awesome. I will definitely give this a try. Which method do you recommend?

 

I used the automotive relays, I believe I posted the part number before already, yep Napa AR143, BTW my bike is street fightered so running wires and what not wasn't a big deal, IDK what is all involved with having the fairings

 

I did this to my 06 F4i about a month ago and used the napa relay method too. It was my first venture into anything electrical (besides flush mounts) and only ran into a little snag that turned out to just be a crappy connection. As for running the wire from the front blinkers to the rear, it wasnt a big deal at all. Just remove the fairings and run the wire along the frame and tuck it up out of sight and out of the way. I secured it with some cable ties and when the fairing was put back on you could not see anything.

 

So could somebody just post a schematic to do this on a f2? I'm not sure what wires I would run it off of, I.E. colors and the such. I'm just tryin to get my turn signals working, the front running lights work but when I hit the switch they just turn off, and the back ones don't work at all. I think the back ones are jacked up wiring, but I'm not sure about the front ones. The switch is good, already checked it, and all the bulbs are good. I'm not sure about the relay, and I'm not sure how to check it. Help me PLEASE
