Hi all,
Bike is
50cc Suzuki RG50r 1985 Gamma
Day 1:
I was out for a cruise the other day. Suddenly all my lights went out!
Got home as bike was a lot slower...
I opened the seat to expose electrics and it stunk! I replaced the 15 fuse and the lights went on for a sec and then it blew again.
Next day:
So, today I unhooked all the leads, put in new 15 fuse. Then one by one connected them to see if the fuse would blow.
All was well till the last connection (see below) it blew before I even turned the ignition

I think that it is the regulator? There is some oily stuff coming out of it. Wiped a bit off and it thick and smells chemically so not oil
Day 3:
Emailing motorbike electronic places trying to find a part 3/6 replied so far. No part.
So also looking for alternatives.
Wonder if this will work?

I have only a really basic understanding of electronics so help is needed before I break something.
In my mind i see the engine on making charge through coils. The charge is too high and AC? so the regulator is a resistor that drops the charge to 12V to charge the battery and provide support power for the lights etc.
Thanks,
Edmund
