Uh-Oh reversed battery polarity. LF200GY-5

Onthepipe · 12-14-2007, 03:25 AM

On my brand new LF 200 I managed to touch the wrong terminals installing the battery for the first time. Got one spark. Replaced the burnt out 15 amp fuse, but still nothing. What else got burned out?

What do you mean you got one spark? and still nothing. What is the bike not doing?

One spark when the wire touched the battery terminal. I had no power to lights, Ign, horn, starter, etc. I found the loose connection behind the headlight and it cranks and all seems OK. But I haven't started it yet.
