MZ RT 125 2001 wiring issue

Postby David C » Wed Mar 07, 2012 6:46 pm

hey guys, have myself a nice wee 2001 mz rt125, needs a few things done to it but runs nice and is fun to ride. i have found what looks like a main earth cable hanging, the earth end is connecting the the mount for the horn. can anyone tell me where this connects please? also anyone able to tell me where i can get decent replacement parts, eg regulator/rectifier? pretty sure i have burned mine out. got a brand new battery for spare kept charged so can make small journeys on it atm but would really like to get it fixed up and running properly. cheers :)

on my 2002 rt125 there are 2 wires from the harness to the horn
may be something that was added

find the reg/rec on the bottom of the air cleaner box
follow the wires out to the place it plugs in to the harness

this plug on mine died several years ago may need a new connector there ..
i just hard soldered it in place and did away with the plug
lot of power passes through this and a good solder joint works best
a wire crimp or spades are not a good idea here
