'02Banshee Posted July 9, 2020 Report Share Posted July 9, 2020 So I have a 2002 Yamaha Banshee with no key or battery. The lights have been hooked up to the Stater (stater, not starter) and the dont work. Neither does the brake light. Any tips or pointers?

hoppedupandcutdown Posted July 9, 2020 Report Share Posted July 9, 2020 Has to be running. If so, the bulbs could be blown if the regulator is bad, not connected, or not bolted down tight to a clean bare metal. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'02Banshee Posted July 9, 2020 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2020 (edited) I'm guessing that it's the bulbs because all the wires are connected to the stater but the lights are not giving juice so it must not be bolted to the clean bare metal Edited July 9, 2020 by '02Banshee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ginger Posted July 10, 2020 Report Share Posted July 10, 2020 just some info dump here. OEM banshees dont have battery's, never have. They power everything off of the stater, the stater has a coil for spark, and one for the light circut. This being said it has to be running for the lights to work, You also need to have a voltage regulator, normally it is mounted to the frame on the back of the subframe, by the CDI box. IF not, the stater can put out too much power when you rev it and blow all the bulbs. Only time you will see a Bat on a banshee is when someone put a DC conversion kit on, so they can have more power for a LED light bar, or to try some fuel injection stuff etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
'02Banshee Posted July 11, 2020 Author Report Share Posted July 11, 2020 All rights thanks for the info but I found the problem. Behing the lights are the adapters to the wires (duh) and none of the wires are connected. So I found the problem. Thanks guys. I'm also looking for some LED lights so if there are any recommendations please let me know. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bansheesandrider Posted July 13, 2020 Report Share Posted July 13, 2020 You are going to need to do a DC conversion to make LEDs work properly and last. Banshees make AC power. Google Banshee DC conversion to get the info you need. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
