There are a few things I would like to know about my new Zero Cycles (2017 DS ZF 6.5 & 2017 SR ZF 13 with Pwr tank).
1. Where does the low voltage (the 13.8VDC) come from? I think I heard mention of a DC to DC converter, but I also see several wires leaving the battery on the very difficult to read small schematic that I got from the Unofficial Service Manual.
2. What are those extra wires from the battery (left side of battery on the small schematic) Is there more than just battery cells inside the battery?
3. Is it possible to get a better schematic diagram?
4. Is there a way to get to the 13.8 VDC when the key is out? There are several reasons I want an always on low voltage lead. I even like the horn to work while the key is still in my pocket. And a much better horn, of course. The stock one is a joke. I even consider it dangerous, I can yell louder than that weak beep! IMO, the rest of the bike looks like it's very reasonable quality.
Thanks in advance for any tech info. anybody here can give on how these bikes work.
