Hi:
The red ignition warning light on my headlamp shell is flashing!
I have installed a 3 phase alternator and podtronics solid state regulator / rectifier on my 1974 MKII 850 Commando. I have also added a three prong 06-2054 warning light assimilator. When the ignition is turned on the red warning light on the headlight comes on. When the bike is started the light does NOT go fully out...... It starts slowing flashing, light intensity is very dim. Behavior is the same regardless of how many revs.
I'm wondering if I have not wired the WLA correctly?
The wiring loom is new, there is of course no original zenor diode or rectifier. The WLA is connected to the factory loom: White/brown goes to the warning light in the headlight, red goes to ground, (still 12v positive ground electrics). I think the crux of the matter is what to do with the Green/yellow wire connected to the thrid prong of the WLA. The loom includes two wires, (one green/White and one Green/Yellow) that would have been connected to a single phase stator ring. I have connected the Green/Yellow wire formerly required to be connected to a single phase stator to one of the three wires coming off the 3 phase stator ring. I have not done anything with the Green/ White wire.
Is this correct or am I missing something?
Cheers,
James
