need urgent help, today i connected a new ape rr to my bike (P150 UG3). before connecting the new ape rr, my battery was discharged and was showing 10.5 volts. on connecting ape rr and starting the engine it started to show 9.3 volts. even after riding for 1.5 hours it still is 9.3 volts.? help me.
Bcz, APE RR will work only with a battery, as it doesn't've a battery monitor. The new models may work without battery as its got a separate battery monitor probe, just my logic though. I don't know how to measure the current with an open circuit with a DMM. Voltage should be 14.3-5 max, anything beyond this, u r risking the battery life, so is the other electricals.
Mine is still going strong, so long as u r not complicating the circuit, it should last long. There should be some internal shorting/pinching of wires with ur old harness. Its a very rugged RR than our stock to extreme conditions, it hardly fails as per the APE mechanics. Before DC conversion my stock RR burnt twice with everything stock.
