    Battery warning light

    Just found this old post about the idiot lights:


    All I want to do is get rid of the battery warning light. These instructions seem to be far more involved than what I would like to just get rid of that. I don't use the million dollar Yusa battery with the pickup for the battery warning light, just a regular battery. In the past I simply opened up the gauge cluster and crushed the bulb with a pair of needle nose pliers, but I'd rather not do this with my current ride. Isn't there an easy way to make this light stay off? Is there a wire I can jumper or something? I found a loose wire near the battery (green) with a bullet connector on it, I am guessing it was for the battery warning light connection.

    Hi

    Not absolute sure ...

    But. on the old Kawasaki I had,the sense wire for the battery should have more than 6 volt to it ,to shut off warning lamp..
    So, I think you can put the wire to 12 volt to shut the lamp off.

      I just pulled the bulb. Simple and now I have a spare bulb.

        You can open the console and pull the bulb. I opened mine up to put a 140 speedo in. I closed it up and went for a test ride and realized I forgot to pull that damn bulb out. I got to put that on my to do list.
