Is 10 volts sufficient for a 12 volt bulb?
Good day everybody,
I have problems with the lighting on my moped.
I had already replaced the entire wiring harness and rerouted all the cables, both power and ground, for the bulbs.
Still no light.
The moped starts, so at least the alternator must be working.
But when I measured the current leading to the rectifier, only about 10 volts arrived. (The rectifier had already been replaced without improvement.)
Are 10 volts not enough or is the problem perhaps completely different?

Unfortunately, you did not specify which Mofa is.
In some models you have an ignition coil and a “light coil”.
If it’s no longer all right, it no longer generates the 12 volts needed for the light.
The installation of a new coil is simple if you have pulled off the pole wheel and the coil is expensive – depending on the model – also not.
for many modes there is a coil in the generator for ignition and an extra coil for the light machine
But 10 volts arrive for the light, is that enough or not?
this is enough for a dark chamber lighting but not to get the street bright
lima in eimer, the coil for the light is broken
So I’d definitely have to measure 12 volts.

nobodyathome has already written the lima has 2 seperate coils
what kind of a bucket do you have?
then you could pull the schematic and tell you what and where you have to measure…if you find the schematic in the network
