Always check the earth
« on: January 28, 2012, 10:26:44 AM »
My new 110 has been riddled with electrical problems. Heater being intermitant at best(ok i thought new motor needed), temp gauge going to melt down now and again(new thermostat i thought). And last night head lights dimming to candle power when they felt like it!!!! not good thought my eyesight was going lol.  Thought to my self cant possibly have all this wrong at one time!!!( but with my luck who knows). Had previously checked that earth straps were in place however pulled at them this morning and they crumbled in my hands!!!

New straps fitted all seems to be well.

Maybe my luck has changed!!  :D

Thanks Bill
