Bro,

 

Can share how to measure current using multimeter, cause a lot of us does not know how to use multimeter to detect which is positive (+Ve) which is (-ve) wire, in case we connect the wire for the led strips then short circuit which i think is pretty dangerous.

 

Thanks bro.

CURRENET IS MEASURED IN SERIESWITH THE LOAD...

To find + and - wire, if the voltage reading is positive, the + and - correspond to the multimeter leads. If voltage is negative, it mean it's reverse.

Thanks bros for e help rendered, i hope everyone will benefits from here, at least for me now

that i know we use multimeter to check for dc voltage instead of current, as normally there will be around 3 wire attached to let's say rear brake light and a lot of people or maybe just me does not know how to connect a 2 wire led strip to the rear brake so that when you tap the brake it'll light up, i did trial and error by using just the led

strip to connect out of the 3 wire then snap, the whole bike short circuit liao, totally no light on the bike not even signal light and i wasted 20

bucks cause the wire short circuit and one of the wire at the headlight harness broke. it's not just the money cause money can be earned but it's just the whole bike can only travel at a maximum of only 40km/hr all the way to the bike shop, due to my very own itchy finger and stupidity act.

Hi all,

 

Just thought I'd share my experience earlier while I was at work. The guard contacted me to inform me that my bike had been knocked off the stand and was lying on the side. So I rushed down, picked it up off the ground and straightened it back into a motorcycle lot. Put in my key and tried cranking it to start but as suspected, the engine wouldn't turn. So bo pian, pushed it up from the basement carpark to park it in front of my office for later inspection.

 

Later, figuring it must be fuel could be excess fuel, I turn the throttle to the max and cranked the bike. Keep holding the throttle at the max position while cranking the pressing the starter button until you hear the engine turning and the bike coming to life. Rev the engine a little bit more, and monitor idling able to return to normal. Success! A towing fee of $40 and a trip to the repair shop saved!

 

Cheers,

HiLMi

Nice to see a DIY thread showing how to install a SPY alarm. Will be referring to this thread if I get the SPY.

Hi Bro, Good information. Thanks bro.
