We have two strong running TDMs here and they both do it, they've done it for years, and neither has ever had another symptom of an electrical problem.) Having this light show when everything is normal, is distracting. It'll alternate between red and yellow, in time with the turn signals, sigh. It's been great on every bike I have had, except the TDM, which lives in yellow or solid red territory anytime the bike is idling, even if just for 30 seconds at a traffic light. There's actually a little chart in the box that tells you the specific numbers for these, and they're all very close together, but I don't have the number memorized, sorry. Flashing green is overcharging, yellow is marginal, red is low, flashing red is dangerously low. It can flash red, solid red, yellow, green, flashing green, and each of these means something about the voltage. ![]() This one is just a single tiny LED light. I've installed this Signal Dynamics voltmeter in a couple of past bikes: And if you are installing a bunch of accessories such as driving lights and heated grips, you can use it to tell when you're running too much and oughtta turn something down/off. The voltmeter can give you early warning if your battery is going south, or if there's a problem with the reg/rectifier.
