willaduncan Posted October 4, 2015 Report Share Posted October 4, 2015 Ever since my rebuild I have had nothing but problems with my DC conversion. I have a sheerider stator kompulsive concepts dc harness trail tech reg/rec. everything worked great at first then I had an issue with my old battery box causing an issue and losing my grounding so the battery drained. I have since moved the battery location and new harness for new location, now the lights are not working. The battery after a charge reads 12.5 v with no draw... Lights on the battery reads 0.00 v. Is my assumption that the battery fried from the earlier issue correct or could this be an underlying issue?

willaduncan Posted October 4, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 4, 2015 Rectifier might be shit? do you really think a bad rectifier would cause a 0v reading with a draw on the battery? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
