OK, This is a brand new battery. I had to replace hers as each cell was so swollen i could hardly get it out of the battery box. That sounds like either overcharging or the car battery did her in. It reads 12.0 volts, I have it on the charger now and will try again and reply with the results as soon as I get at least 13+ in the battery.Mark
She said it was surging and just ran out of power
So, there is a connector under the tank for the Tach wire between the Tach and the ECU??
Black/Yellow goes from the Tach to the ECU
OK some new info: I charged the Battery to 13.5 volts and re-installed it. Turned on the Key and both the headlight and Horn are still dead. Looked at the #3 fuse for the Horn and tested it and it is fine. I started the bike and it started instantly. Took off the choke and let it idle and took my meter on DC volts and measured the battery...Battey read 12.8 volts. I revved the bike and increased the RPM, the meter display never changed. Also the Tach is still dead but need to research that connector between the Tach and ECU.So, What is common to both the Horn and headlight?Mark

OK, First of all bad typo California EV is 2002 not 98.....too many bikes in the garage, sorry and the tach does come off of the ECU according to the wiring diagram. Black and yellow wire from the tach to the ECU plug.Mark
It just struck me...do you suppose this scooter began to exhibit charging problems after an earlier owner tried to wire in a separate headlight circuit w/wo relays? If not done correctly there is the potential to remove the +12 Volts required to "juice" the voltage regulator. Okay....back to sleep.Good luck!
