    How to disable Batteyr idicator?

    I was told that if my battery doesn't have a sensor (which most newer units do not) that I should ground out the sensor wire. My new battery is now a sealed AGM unit.

    I tried to attached the wire itself to the negative terminal of the bike but the light did not go off.

    Do I need to cut the resistor out and ground the wire to the negative terminal or some other location or is there a different process?

    Any suggestions appreciated.

    Thanks.

    Think I've answered my own question, but I'll post for the next person who asks...

    Need to remove the resistor and then attach to positive (+) side of battery, not negative/ground.

    Enjoy.

      Did you try it without removing the resistor?

      It usually works just by connecting the sensor (complete with resistor) to a positive source.
      Some will do it direct, others will do it to a switched source.
