rx troubles

[realmenride50s]

hey guys
just got a problem with my motovert rx
i went to start it and it was like the battery was flat i had to kick start it it raan fine after that but it didnt seem like it had enough power to the lights and horn and stuff
and when i turned it off it only seemed to charge the battery a very little bit and still not enough to use the electric start

any suggestions??

thanks adam

check ver the wiring make sure nothing has come unplugged, put the battery on a trickle charge for the night

i'd throw the china battery out they last about a week

go to a company like ac delco or a reputable battery joint and get a decent gel pack

then you wont have any issues for a long time

to test the battery you've got chuck a multi metre on it and check the ampage

if it's under what it says on the battery chuck it

ok thanks wat sort of volts should it be

all the rx's we sold batt's are fine, maybe a broken charge unit

 

[realmenride50s]

how can u tell if the charge unit is broken

 

[coolmodee01]

when the bike is running measure the cranking amps

on a small battery i'm not sure what it should be but output should be

do you know what voltage and ampage the battery rated at??? it should be printed on it somewhere

do you know corey??

get the muity meter out put it on volts, at aroud idel it should be 12ish volts and when you give it rev's you will see the volts rise aswell to round 13-14volts that will tell you if it chargeing or not
