All 15- Dashboard PCBs Gaz66, 8/8/2025 at 12:11 AM Here ya go my old cock sparrow, only guy in the UK that makes em to order: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/305985541227 Yep that is me 🙂 I'm keen to see if any other vehicles could use the same…
- Dashboard PCBs Hi all, I was thinking about the flexible dashboard PCB that the 5th gen VFR has (not sure about other gens?) Out of curiosity, does anyone know other bikes/vehicles that use this sort of thing? I have a vague idea that…
- Indicator issue - relay? I've just submitted an order to jlcpcb. I've had good success with them in the past Here's the board now, will post pics/try it out once it arrives
- Indicator issue - relay? 15 hours ago, Grum Remake a whole PCB! Why not just simply bridge the open circuit tracks and you're done? The rest of the PCB looks pretty good to me. YMMV! Partly for fun, I'm much more of an electrical guy than…
- Indicator issue - relay? This part of the trace is so corroded that the connection is broken. It's a common ground for the indicator bulbs I've seen enough to justify remaking the PCB. At the very least I find it enjoyable, and I've never had a…
- Indicator issue - relay? Some significant corrosion to the highlighted areas. Next step is to get out the bench power supply and see if the problem persists off the bike -- this would confirm that the PCB is the cause No signs of short circuits…
- Indicator issue - relay? I appreciate that I'm treating this thread a bit like a personal blog. I'm going to have a look at the dashboard PCB as my next priority, I suspect that I had 2 unrelated issues going at once (the stator wires burnt +…
- Indicator issue - relay? Yeah, I cut back a pretty decent chunk to fresh wire and spliced in some 12AWG. In hindsight I should've tested the stator's resistances before hard wiring them though
- Indicator issue - relay? Alternator wires have now been hard wired to the RR, but of course this is probably just the initial cause of the problem and not the remaining issue(s) Issue with the dash still occurs. Will see if I can find my…
- Indicator issue - relay? Following my suspicion of the alternator, we may be onto a winner here
- Indicator issue - relay? Continuity between the relay ground and live are good, as are the voltages I noticed that the voltages actually drop as I rev (like you see in my previous post) so the flashing issue could be because it isn't getting…
- Indicator issue - relay? Really good discussion, I appreciate the inputs My multimeter is reading this across the battery: 13V @ 5000rpm (stable) 13.1V @ idle (fluctuating +-0.1V) Is it worth getting the oscilloscope out to see how stable it…
- Indicator issue - relay? I replaced battery + R/R (both brand new) in April 2024, but I'll check the voltages in case they've gone bad for some reason
- Indicator issue - relay? I haven't had a chance to investigate this issue more, but I have noticed another symptom Revving the engine influences the indicators, both sides equally When I get time I'll check the relay supply and ground
- Indicator issue - relay? Hiya, I'm trying to diagnose an issue with my indicators on my 1999 VFR800F Symptoms: both indicator lights are always iluminated on the dashboard when the headlights are on, and the flasher relay seems to "stick" Both…
