  • R15 Battery Trouble

    I've been facing alot of problems with my battery lately.. It used to get drained very quickly.. Within a day or two it used to get discharged and now its even worse.. I have ridden it for over 170 KM continously and still it didnt get charged up.. I hit the starter it doesnt self start and I have to push start it


    P.S I had a Central locking system, I've even tried to remove it from battery terminals and still battery drains quickly..
    Patience is something you admire in the driver behind you and scorn in the one ahead.

      Hi Friend, The main chance for battery drain could be some short circuit in your electrical circuit. This drains your battery to the end - check the remote system wires.

      Some other reasons..

      Check your battery distilled water level - if less then top it up and give it for a charge.

      If your brake light switch is not adjusted properly, the tail lamp keeps glowing, ends in battery drain - replace/adjust the switch.

      check if the battery gets enough voltage to get charged - with a multi meter (check also for loose connection in the battery terminals).
