How to rewire e100 battery

You should have 2 wires with clips = one red that you clip on the Positive [ + ] post of the battery, this may be marked red on the cable. The other black clips to the Negitive [ - ] post of the battery.
Don't plug in the charger untill you clip the wires to the battery, make sure the charger is set to 12 volts. If your cherger has a cigar lighter wire just plug it in to the dash port.

hello,,i'm not overly familiar with these but,,here goes,,,,if it is reading fully charged,,but it will not go,,,,if you have an electrical tester,,,plug the red probe into the red wire connector on the battery,,,,and the black one to the black connector on battery,,,,,just to be sure charge gauge is reading correctly,,,,,,if it is indeed fully charged,,,,now go to where you engage the power,,,,whether it be a pedal,,or a trigger on the handle bar,,,,,you will have to check all connections to be sure one has not come off,,,,or got to lose to make a connection,,,,if all looks ok there,,,,check the wires that go to the motor ,,, from the battery,,,,make sure all is secure,,,,, if it has gotten wet,,,check for any corrosion on all your electricals,,,,,,and clean ,,,,,when your doing all this,,,,,also check for a broken wire,,,,,or stripped wire,,,, hopefully these steps will put you in the right direction and back to riding,,,,, JOEL

the positive battery cable goes to the starter and the black box.there are some other wires involved with the pos cable. if your trying to replace it with a generic cable you cause more problems down the road than its worth.get a factory one at the dealer it will be easier to install and wont create problems

Hello. Yes. the black wire is the ground wire. It goes from the frame to the negative post of the battery. The red wire is the hot wire and it goes to the positive post.

check out this picture, it shows the 2 batteries wired up.

Notice that the batteries are flipped opposite of each other.
So from left to right its: bottom red, bottom black, top black, top red

Between the 2 batteries there is 1 red to black connection.
Then black to black-wire to circuit board
and red to red-wire to circuit board.

Hi and welcome to FixYa,

Pls see your other post, but basically:

• in most, one end of the red wire is connected straight to the battery's + terminal. The other end of the red wire goes to the main fuse;
  
• the black of course as you posted goes to the ground;
  
• interchanging the 2 wires from the starter relay would make no difference;
  
• the starter relay is not directly grounded;
  
• the starter relay's + wire goes to the starter button;
  
• the starter  relay's - wire goes to starter cut-off activated by safety interlocks (neutral and clutch lever).
  

Good luck and thank you for asking FixYa.

I'm not sure what you are trying to say...
If you are saying that you have a Black Cable connected to your Positive side of your battery, then you need to check the following:
As you probably know, there should be a cable (probably black in color) with some sort of Red marking on it or a Red Rubber boot that goes to the Positive terminal on the battery (the battery should also have a + sign or a red indicator on the battery). The other Black Cable should go to the Negative side of the battery and run straight to the firewall or some metal grounding spot in the car.
Any other way will not be a good thing for the car or the ECU.

hello the red wire from battery goes to solenoid with the nut on it. And the other side with the nut goes to the starter motor. Sometimes there will be a B for + and a M for starter motor on the solenoid. On the + side of solenoid front of the + cable from battery a blue/black wire will go there. and the other side of solenoid will be a blue/white wire. I hope this helps

hi j
im dave
first check the battery connections. make sure they are tight and corrosion free. corrosion will show up as white fluffy chuncks. if there is corrosion use a mixture of sodium bicarbonate(baking soda) and water to clean and then coat the terminals with petroleum jelly or fiber washers available at auto part stores.
if all is well there when the condition occurs again try using a jumper on the start relay to see if it starts right away. if so your starter relay is probably on the way out and should be changed before it dies completely.
im not too sure exactly where it will be on your car but they are usually found along the left side of the engine compartment and are easily identified as the positive battery cable goes to one big screw and the other screw beside it holds a wire going to the starter. use normal jumper cables but only employ one color (red to red or black to black)
