New to me 77 XLH Sportster....battery not charging
From sticky:
Charging system test:
Bike not running 12.x
Bike Running 11.8ish
Generator Test #1
14 AMP output from gen using instructions from FM, says > 10A its good
14 Volts at A on gen
9-10 Volts at F on gen
Starting to think regulator is bad but I took the cover off and everything appears in order, clean, and not sticking.
The wiring on the bike is pretty shoddy. Took a look at wiring diagram and it shows a wire from main circuit breaker to Battery + Terminal. The only wire on my Battery + Terminal is the battery cable to starter solenoid. I can't even locate the main circuit breaker shown in the diagram. Could my battery not be charging due to this missing component?
