Hi,
Being (very) new to this forum and all things Bonnie, I hope someone can help me in layman terms with the following.
I have a 2014 T100 and I really like the custom scene. As such I've started to custom it myself. Nothing structural or engines tuning etc, but little bolts on here and there etc.
First stop, back mud guard off and swapped with new lighter and shorter one. I bought new 'plug and play' bullet LED indicators front and back. They turned out to be anything but and needed much twiddling and some soldering to get them sorted. Also purchased with them, a new regulator which I was told would be required to slow the flash rate down. It did, but they still flash faster than normal.
I later found out that the 2014 T100 has an electrical system that doesn't really like the LED set up. I believe its called cambus or something?
So question one: Is it ok to leave the LEDS fitted?
Second question: Having got them on, I found that one of the 'junction' boxes in the nest of wires squashed behind the headlight gets very hot. The voltage (regulator?) that sits on the forks and feeds this box is cool. Is this normal? Or is there a shorting going on somewhere?
The green flasher light on the speedo dial stays on when I have the indicator so however doesn't flash in time with the indicators when on.
Have I opened a can of wiring worms? Arghhhhh?!
Hope one of you may have trodden this route and can help me!
Many thanks
Max
