Hello from St Louis,
I am trying to convert my 1981 Honda Passport scooter from AC to DC operation in order to upgrade the ignition and charge the battery. I am planning on installing a Shorai 6 volt battery.
When I measure the coil I get a nipple shaped AC wave form. When I add a GBU6J full wave recitifier I loose the negative side of the AC wave and the DC output measured on channel 2 looks like the input on channel 1.
I checked the diodes in the bridge and the appear to be "OK".
Comments?? Thanks for your help. Dave
