Hi. new to the fourm. My 1993 1500 will not keep it's time and the raido will not keep it's channel when I tuen the trike off. Once I turn the key back on I have lost everything. any help?

U were working on something under the seat. You blew #13 fuse . Open the left side cover (not the battery side .) Open the box marked relay in the bottom left corner is # 13 . This is your memory fuse . it is a 5 amp.

 

[Triker Mike]

.It will be under the pass.left leg & is the only fuse on the relay board. It is marked Back-up And John said it is a 5 amp fuse & depending on your trike kit it. On mine (Roadsmith) it is a bit** to get too. They just put it together & then thought about it & said oh well

I am hoping against hope that I never have to get into the relay box. Will most likely have to do some surgery on it to get it accessible. On our MotorTrike it is well and truly wedged between the frame and the kit's bodywork.

Is your air comressor still in place? Mine is & I was going to service it to use it as a courtsey service for myself & others . After 2 Hrs of fighting I gave up & bolted it back up.I'm sure there are other trike kits that have the same problems Lots of :Bug2::Bug2::Bug2:

 

[Ozarkryder]

Yup, the compressor seems to be the same. would have to take the body off to do the proper service.

 

[John Luciano]

FISHUNT did it work?

 

[fishunt]

I have a motor trike kit, i looked and to get to the relay i would have to take the whole body off. I am not sure i can do that. Thanks for the advice.

I had to put a notch in the rear fender under the side cover so I could remove the cover. I would do it now. If you blow a relay someday like a non essential Headlight it is going to be along night on a dark road .You know the problem is now fix it while u are home not on the road.

 

[Triker Mike]

John do you have any pics of this notch???

 

[fishunt]

I might be wrong . I can get to the fuse box, but not the relay box.

 

[Triker Mike]

I can & have gotten to the Fuse block with little problem.But the relay block is a totally different ball game:innocent::blahblah:

 

[John Luciano]

I will try to post it ... I just removed some from the thickness on my DFT

 

[Triker Mike]

It looks like your fender doesn't come as far forward as the Roadsmith.In the next day or two I'll try to take a pic of mine

 

[John Luciano]

this mostlikly true . i use the full side cover , my friend on his MT coup has a chopped one. I know because he lost one and we had to cut one up shorter
