Headlight problem

well after running pdfcrack for over 18 hours, my wife unknowingly killed it. I'm not going to go through it all again. We were well into the 6 character passwords with no luck. Brute force is no fun :(. I guess we'll let it go for now.

Hmm,.. very strange.  I would think that we should just chalk that up to a bug on both programs?  :shrug: It seems to open fine for everyone not using what you did.  :wink:

Voltage Regulator
« Reply #19 on: August 11, 2007, 11:30:25 PM »
Hey guys, i'm having some troubles with my headlights too. ive come to the conlcusion (through some fun with a multi meter) that the Voltage Regulator must be shot.
When the engine is off the volts reaching the headlight hang around 16 but when the engine is one it cranks to around 28...
Anyone got service manual/schematic for changing the voltage regulator?

That would be my guess too, but have you done the diagnostic yet? (see my sig at the bottom of this post)

The reg/rectifier is very easy to change, it's the finned object on the left side of you bike, just below the seat.  Also, you don't have to use the one for the B4, there are tons of others you can get that are cheaper.

Dita's been using a CB400 RR for the last 2 years, no hiccups, but read through the posts, there are tons of possibilities.  

The service manual can be found in the Members section.
