electric issues

[GSQC]

So I bought some tools recently and started cheking my gs 750 77 because it stopped working( it died slowly rpm unstable hard to start cant rev it or it would stale also my sparkplug are black cheked them no fire) ,
cheked the compression on my cylindres it was good

I can't fire it with the kick try to chek the voltage but the voltmeter thath I bought was scrap before I even used it

So here are some symptomps :Headlight and blinkers are working but slowly horn is dead but some time when Iturn the key till the end and I kick I can use it

I cheked the r/r it's the stock one
the blinker unit is an aftermarket one

You have a battery charger? SOunds like battery is low (slow blinker), maybe from charging system problem not charging the battery, or maybe just from all the trying to start it.

You will need to use volt meter to properly check the charging system.

If you charge the battery with battery charger, and do get the engine started; one general way to check the charging system some is to see if headlight brightens some when rev the engine.

WHere are you located?

GSCQ,

Now that I think of it some more, I think I remember that GSCQ is a reference to GS Quebec Canada, correct?

I would suggest you add your location to your profile and your bike model in signature line (both in User CP).


>>later note: apparently we posted at about the same time.
