WIRING UP COILS ON VFR400 NC24

Post by speedy(delboy) »

I am having a few problems wiring up the VFR4 NC24 coils (I have attached a pic below to help with explaining).

I have the obvious 4 coils and 8 wires as per the diagrame, now natural thinking tells me to put all the black/white stripes to the black terminals on the coils and the remainder on either the green or blue, but when i do this, all I get is a buzzing from the started solinoid.

I thought the solinoid was busted so put on another one but the same thing happens.

Can anyone suggest what I am doing wrong.

P L E A S E :shock: :shock:

This may sound silly..but maybe a flat battery ? I always used to get a buzzing sound from the solenoid when the battery was flat!

I was using a battery charger as I had no battery and it was set for 12V fast charge, but I have since found out that the amperage was not high enough to kick the bike over. Have now found a battery and charged her up and she kicks over luuuuuuurvly :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :wink:

Next thing to do is throw some juice into her and try to fire her up, will be noisey though as I havent got the gaskets for the downers :shock: :shock:
