These also worked fine, and are still doing so at the local training school that I sold it to.
Given you have issues with the flashers, I strongly suspect your wiring is loose/not connected. Check your connections again before you go out buying more stuff. If he's strained the wires either in the crash or by moving things around, the crimp that holds the connector onto the wire may be loose on one or more wires. |
Thanks Dippy.
I have taken the clocks off and reconnected everything.. still exactly the same and revs still not working.
I risked the carb model cheapy chinese clocks because a previousl post you wrote said you had fitted them and they worked.
We need to check the bulb in the front, as someone suggested that sometimes one bulb out can affect others?? no idea if it is true.
I am no electrician or auto electrician, but I am pretty handy and learn things quickly. I will keep having aplay as I am pretty stubborn so determined to crack this.
A we are up against the clocks I may well end up putting it into garage, but it will annoy me to admit defeat lol |

Thanks everyone for the supportive words and snippets of info and advice.
We have fixed it
The only thing not working is the revometer, but not a big issue. It is riding great.
We are going to change the brake pads next as they feel pretty worn, but he is back up and running. e can get back out on it as of today He will be pleased. |
