if the ECU has this voltage problem could the issue be fixed by the gurus
One thing tho, I will put the switch on the right side so I can hold in the clutch while starting. That way I can even start in gear, Right?
Correct me if I’m wrong, but I don’t think Chrome Batteries are made in the US.https://www.chromebattery.com/
I've installed this wiring on all of the Guzzi's except for the Norge as it has the MPH device. If I want to bypass the handlebar switch, the light blue female connector is touched to the power nut on the starter. No one would guess what this is and the bike won't start without the key.
FOTOGUZZI: I've thought further about that. I'd like to hear other experience, but I sense that the CLUNK feature usually or normally occurs after a period of sitting or parking. Overnight? After work? Once the bike is started and run for a commute or errand, the alternator puts a nice surface charge on the battery. If you stall in traffic, you are thus less likely to get a CLUNK. Re-starting with the stock Guzzi button is highly likely. With six bikes I'm more concerned about parking for several days and then getting a morning CLUNK. Thus, I need the hand throttle, and thus my bypass button goes to the left side.YMMV. Does anyone get the CLUNK during an incidental traffic stall.Patrick HayesFremont CA
So, if I wire in a button like you did Pat, can the original wire to the solenoid be connected too? And leave the ignition relay all connected as stock.? So the added button would only be used when the handlebar button is not working.
and Odyssey batteries are the good sheet, man.
This thread started about Norge but also includes Breva 11. AFAIK, Odyssey do not make a battery to fit the Breva 11. If someone has such in place I'd like to hear about it.Patrick HayesFremont CA
looks good but there is no access like that on the Norge, it’s hidden behind the side panel.
What I’ve done with success when I don’t want to change original wiring is to add a relay. The original wire that triggers the starter solenoid now triggers the relay which gets its power straight from the battery. It then triggers the solenoid.
Maybe easy for some but I could never get my hand in there to get at the spade connector much less get it back on the pin. I can’t even see it in your pic.
You can't see the spade connector because I have not modified the wiring on this bike as it has never been a problem getting it started. But the hot wire nut is accessible. Anyway, good luck with the problem."Those blue snap on the wire connectors are for temporary connections only and are not good even for that."And it's been there for about a dozen years as these wires are only used if the starter switch doesn't work, which has been rare on this bike. It's way better than crossing two screwdrivers to jump the starter in the field.
