To hot to trot.......REG/REC

And so on to the next problem.
Lost all electrics whilst riing today,
main fuse had blown had a quick
look bunged another fuse in and
it blew again,.
What I did find was that even
without the engine running the
regulator,rectifier got really hot,
to hot to touch after just a minute
or so and only cooled down after
the fuse had blown.
This obviously isn`t right is it a
faulty reg/rec or possibly a problem
with the wiring somewhere?

What do you reckon?

Cheers

Hi Allan,sounds to me like a faulty unit.
If you got a genuine K workshop manual it will give meter readings that you should be getting.
Obviously check all wiring and connections,condition of battery,etc.
If you want to borrow a genuine Kawasaki manual,send me an email with your postal address and I'll get 1 in the post at the weekend.
I've got to sort my GPz wiring out over the winter,otherwise it'll be the world's heaviest push bike :twisted:

Hi Jack,
Thanks very much for the offer of the manual it`s
most appreciated.
I`ve ordered a new reg/rec anyway, for ?50 I thought
it was worth a try.

Cheers
