Hello all,

I'm currently on a rtw trip on a Tenere (09) and having problems with the electrics. The regulator first failed 1000km into the trip in Germany - common problem, replaced by a dealer, no drama.

But 4 months / 15,000 km later the second regulator failed completely without warning (in a remote part of Azerbaijan). This was replaced, but the bike has now developed a problem with the headlight circuit, which will now blow the 20A fuse in minutes.

Err, any ideas? A short on the headlight circuit? Could this have caused the problem with the second regulator? Has anyone else had multiple regulator failures? The bike is running OK without the lights at the moment.

I'm currently in Iran so expertise and parts are thin on the ground!

Cheers, JD
