You say the pictured display is tapped into the meter back light. According to the wiring diagram, several back lights are coming off a common Blue/Brown lead on the 9-spin plug in the headlight. Wait, I just noticed it's not a CB750 like mine. YMMV.
If I were you, I would pull the 9-spin plug off the wiring harness in the headlight and check the voltage for each one with a multimeter. You're right in thinking that you could have resistance, which is a deadly thing, but it may well not be just that lead. If I read you correctly, you never get over 12.9 even at the battery with the engine revved? Funny timing, but I've got a bike that does the same - I verified that with a trip around the subdivision yesterday. I may be jumping the gun, but I turned it off, came into the house, and ordered a new stator from Rick's. Duplicate bike I own got over 14V on the same run. BTW, where did you get that voltage indicator? I'd like to put one on mine, something better than the R-Y-G. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Nighthawk Motorcycle Lovers!" group.
