Have you done the headlight relay trick yet?
Triumph in thier wisdom decided to run the full power for headlights thru ign switch which causes it to over heat and wires fall of yo will find there a couple of threads on the subject there are two ways to fixing it 1 buy the Eastern Beaver kit or make your own using two relay or one the two relay method takes the power from headlight for switching only (very low load) and uses one relay for high and another for low beam, there is no other switches being put under high load and therefore gives max brightness to lights the I relay method still runs full power thru dip switch which will cause extra resistance and possibly switch burnout eventually. This is why the eastern beaver kit is also a two relay setup yet the tight wads at triumph have only now released an upgrade kit for lastyears roadster using a single relay, it is my opinion that I would rather pay for an extra relay and have the best power supply to lights
Hey Thanks for this info. I bought a EB kit and haven't had the chance to install it. With all the friggin about at the stealership, the did a recall ignition job for me. Wasn't sure if my EB was a waste of money but this answers this.
As far as the cracking, backfiring etc, stealership had another go, got it a bit better as they didn't setup throttle position sensor. anyhow, Spoke to Neville Lush and we have decided to send it to SA to get sorted properly.
Will keep you posted as to what the issue ends up being. Such a shame Lushie is so far.
Thanks to one and all for your tips, i have listed all of them and will be working through them all.
