VOLTAGE REGULATOR FRIED ?

[dayalalito]

HELLO EVRYONE,
i just removed my voltage regulator and notice that one of the lower male terminals looks like it is burnt ( im downloading pic) can someone verify if its time for me to do the upgrade of the voltage regulator the connector its self is in good shape (not burnt). keep me

Why risk the chance of major damage to your entire electrical system by keeping it? Swap it out with the much better designed VR.

Do you know what the terminal controls, im going to change it as the bike doesnt want to start anyways so why not upgarde

Looks like one of the WHITE wires that comes from the stator.

Ah you have the cheap copy with the cooling fins That version causes more problems than the OEM version ever has or will!!! (over charging). Darrin is spot on tho the Burnt Terminal connects to one of the White wires from the stator.

Time to inspect what if any damage that POS has done to your electrical components, best place to start is here http://fzronline.com/wiki/doku.php?id=no_spark_now_what

FYI that POS VR (the finned cheap copy) is well known to take out the TCI, Tacho, Fuel pump, and more. I hope your more fortunate.

Good luck.

will order an updated VR, and will see if anything else is fried, tacho dont have to wprry about because the bike didnt have on from the start , will check Fuel pump and let everyone know
