I was hoping someone could tell me what wire is hot on my TC, maybe even hook me up with a wiring diagram. I have put a voltage tester on the wires but can't find any thing with voltage. I have a light and all the parts I need I just need to know what wire to start with and a schematic would be awesome. Thanks
Check with http://www.motosportz.com/HVA-SS/HVA-SS-Trailtech.htm you will need a stator, voltage reg, as a minimum since the TC doesn't put out much out from the original stator been there already. The plug is under the gas tank, rectangular shape 4 connectors wiring diagram is in your owner manual or here http://www.husqvarnamotorcycles.com.au/support.asp?id=2&t=Owner's Manuals&cid=3
So you had to change the stator? I thought the TC's stator was supposed to be big enough to handle a regular light, I do have a voltage reg. So that plug has 3 red wires and 1 orange wire, are all 3 red wires hot?
The plug has 4 wires and is rectangular not square, 2 yellow, 1 red and a 1 blue (not sure exactly of the color been a year when i did this) this where you plug the voltage regulator, i did install a trailtech X2 halogen(70 watts i think) and accordnily to these guy http://www.motosportz.com/HVA-SS/HVA-SS-Trailtech.htm i did need to upgrade the stator. You might be able to do it without upgrading your stator if you are using a low wattage (30-35 watts ish) headlight .
that thing is for a "legal" light at a check...has a lead fer battery charge/e-start too. kouack's right bout the upgrade. be better than nothing if ya ran a normal non-halo bulb. dont expect a bright light. just not enough oomph.
I looked at my manual and the schematic for the TC, it shows a battery and everything like a TE, the book is worthless. I was hoping someone that has done this could draw me a basic schematic that shows me what wire to start with. I have the power regulator.
the scehmatic is usually on. mine was. yellow wire to reg, then wire from reg to one side of bulb, other goes to ground if i recall. really simple. really dim too. call george @ uptite for more info. he'll get ya going in two shakes.
Thanks, You think it's enough light to get ya home if you get stuck out after dark? I've decided to sell the tc510 and get a WR300 or 250. The beast has been fun but I ride a lot of tight single track and it's a lot of work keeping up with the smokers.
