gary301161 Posted November 13, 2010 Share Posted November 13, 2010 Hi, Broke down this morning on the M25, so need some help. I have a 1989 XJ600, as I was going down the motorway I had a couple of miss fires, then about 5 miles later the engine cut out and I lost all electrical power. Got to the hard shoulder and checked the fuses and all ok. After a couple of minutes the neutral came back on and the bike started, started up again and got 300 yards down the road and it happened again. Had to be recovered by the AA. Hope someone can point me in the right direction as to whats wrong. As I say fuses look alright, just need someone to give me a clue before I rip the bike apart tomorrow.

gary301161 Posted November 13, 2010 Author Share Posted November 13, 2010 Hi Again, Just add that the battery is brand new, the AA man thought it could be the rectifier, but is it was that would it mean no power to the ignition or lights?.

Speedshop Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 if its not charging yes it will do exactly what's been happening but also it will be very slow cranking the engine as the battery will be almost flat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
