rashin Posted June 24, 2011 Report Posted June 24, 2011 I want to hook up a couple auxilary 12V items to my quad. I can't seem to find 12V. Ive hooked up to the yellow wires out of the regulator, as well as the taillight leads, and it only comes back at about 1V max when I rev it. Have you guys seen this before? Ive used both analog and digital meters.... Quote

rashin Posted June 24, 2011 Author Report Posted June 24, 2011 Both were on dc. It's weird because the bike functions properly, and all the lights work, even a test light. When I hooked up the nitrous coil it would not actuate the coil. I wonder if the magneto cannot provide enough current... Quote
BigRed350x Posted June 24, 2011 Report Posted June 24, 2011 The electrical system on the banshee is AC voltage, not DC. If you want to run DC accessories you need to do a DC conversion, float the ground on your stator and get a rectifier and a battery. There are plenty of walkthrough's out there on the net on how to do this... Quote
