    I bought one of the 7 Volt things for my '82 GL1100 - Worked like a charm. Followed the instructions. Gauges work perfectly. RTFM!

      It's amazing how things work out when people do decide to RTFM. If 22 years in the military taught me anything, it's to RTFM.

    I can’t thank you enough for all the videos you put your heart and soul into. I recently purchased all new relays for my 1500 and I couldn’t be happier. You didn’t only supply me new and improved relays at a great price, but also piece of mind. I was left on the side of the road due to the ign relay, and that’s what prompted me to look for all new replacements. Awesome work Scott. All you’re efforts are greatly appreciated

    Thanks for the great info. We need you to move into the 1800 generation.

    I have an 08 Goldwing and I hit a pavement break at 70 mph. The bike completely shut down. Long story short, it was the fuel relay. After the dealership in Casper, Wyoming told me it was the main wiring harness. I knew better and rented a truck to get my bike back to Pennsylvania. My local Honda dealer found the problem right away. Needless to say now I carry extra relays.

      Good info. Most Honda dealers don't have a mechanic that knows much about a GL1800. They can't or won't troubleshoot anything. I bet it took your mechanic 5 minutes to remove the seat and about 15 minutes to find the problem. Hang on to that mechanic!

    I guess I was fortunate. My 1999 Goldwing had 378,000 miles on it and I never had a relay fail. In fact, I can’t recall any relays failing on any of the four GL1500s that I had over the years.
    I definitely know a bunch of people that it happened too though.
    Thanks for looking out for the Goldwing community.

    Been meaning to order a couple 1500 regulators. This video was a great reminder; just ordered 2.

    • @scubarider1
      @scubarider1 10 місяців тому

      I think you mean relays. The 7V regulator is for the earlier GoldWing models. It definitely never hurts to carry spares.

    Seven relays in a GL1500? I guess I'll need three or four more. I purchased four of your relays a couple years ago to replace one that was failing on mine. Works like a charm. Just an sob to get into to replace! Great design by Honda (NOT!) , but glad to have a more economical resource. Thanks Scott!

    I have a GL1500, I started it up and the starter kept spinning, I tried turning it off and it wouldn't stop, not even with the key !
    Is this a relay problem ?
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks

    • @GoldwingDocs
      @GoldwingDocs  7 місяців тому +1

      It's a failing starter relay (there are two). They are on the right side of the bike - rap them firmly with the handle of a screwdriver and it will usually knock it free and shut the starter off. Plan to replace it soon.

    I also wonder how many of the issues are from people being color blind.
