Tail section earth points.

#1 Post by ginge » Mon May 26, 2014 9:20 am

I'm after the location of the two earth points within the tail section. This does mean I took it all apart and have forgotten how it goes back together. :smt017

THanks for any help.

IIRC, you will have only 2 that connect to the battery, main earth and rectifier/regulator, these are coloured black, the rest of the earths are coloured blue and connect via the loom.
Don't take this as gospel, my tail unit is still off but I didn't see any random earth leads when I fitted my tail tidy.
If you have any additional stuff fitted you may have additional earths

Earth point.

Hi all,

I had my frame powder-coated, so had to put a new earth point on myself. Just got some 6mm cable and two eyelets and went from the battery to the engine grounding point where the neutral earth goes :smt002

Had to grind off powder coating where the rear sub-frame attaches onto the main frame for continuity....
My warranty is the clear/smoked tail lights around the corner!!
