Need help with a electrical fault

Hi guys. I've come across a problem with my 2000 VFR800. With the headlights on and the engine running the Fi light comes on and if I use the indicators it flashes in time with the indicators if I turn the headlight off the problem goes away, it seems to have no effect on the performance. But it's really annoying. So far I've checked the main earth, the connectors on the wireing loom all that looks fine. I've run out of ideas has anyone ever come across this problem before and how did you solve it?? Any help would be amazimg! Thanks in advance

 

battery voltage at idle and 5k rpm with headlight on

 

At work at the moment I'll get back to you with the information asap

 

Hi mate at idle 13.5
And at 5000 rpm its 14.4??? Is this normal??

 

right on the money, you may have a grounding issue causing your problem

 

Thanks for you help ill keep looking!

 

i think there is a green ground block in the battery area that causes issues. i think you may need to trim some harness cover back to see it. one of the other guys may be able to give you the exact location

 

Thanks I'll have a look when I get home. In the meantime if anyone does have the exact location ide be really great full!!
