I think you just blew a relay
The motronic unit blew as well, though. Would blowing a relay also blow the Motronic unit?  |

I'm open to suggestions as to what could have fried a motronic unit and relay?
I could have been ham- fisted with the battery etc. The charger can switch between settings- motorcycle/ car/ cold ch ... |

Duck,
Ah right. Maybe we were mistaken there, just talked with Dad and we were given what seems to be a wrong wiring diagram for that. That's on my list to check as well, then- where motronic relay ... |

Hi Flybd,
