76 CB550F Key-on overdraw
« on: November 05, 2021, 06:54:31 PM »
Hello fellow CB owners! I just got this Cb550f last week. I’m very surprised about the amount of ppl that love and continue to tinker with these bikes!
I’ve had a few issues so far, the bike has an M Unit Blue and it had a dead Regulator/rectifier when I bought it. I thought good to go, WRONG! The previous owner over filled the oil, puking it all over the back half of the bike. I sprayed engine degreaser and washed all the oil off. But now I have an electrical issue.
With the Key- ON, the bike draws enough power to drain the battery within 5 minutes. The light for the left gauge also died but I believe it unrelated.
Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks mates!
