I recently installed a Beret 5000m alarm on my bike. It's similar to the Spy 5000m - probably just a branding thing.
Initially, I just wired the red and black to the battery, and the yellow wire to the turn signal light wires (dark green) near the tail section. It worked pretty well. I can cause it to flash using the remote, or if the bike moves.
But, sometimes after a half-hour ride, where the fan momentarily stays on after I turn off the engine, anytime I hit the flasher, lock, or unlock button on the remote, with every flash of the blinkers, it also momentarily turns the fan on and the backlight for the meter. It's only for a half-sec, but if it's the flasher button, then it's half-sec every other second for as long as the blinkers stay on.
It's not annoying. It's scary. I'm afraid it's going to cause early fan or tachometer failure.
#1 - Is this normal? Should I be worried?
#2 - Anybody have any idea how I can prevent this from happening? I've looked at the wiring diagrams. I've searched the forums. All to no avail.
Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks!
