dabor2 Posted March 6, 2014 Report Share Posted March 6, 2014 The kill switch should connect to a white plug near the headstock. This plug is a two pin plug with a black and a black/white cable. It should emerge from the harness with another plug that goes to the capacitor (one black cable and one red cable) approx 8" from the end of the main harness. Also from the same point in the harness, will be a single grey cable with a female bullet connector, and a single black/yellow cable with a male bullet connector. these cables are for the dual Map switch if fitted. The headlight should be supplied with another small harness with only two cores (red and black cables). This harness connects to a socket under the "seat" that looks like the same type plug/socket used for the kill switch at the headstock end. Hope this is of some help Regards Mick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leeporter Posted March 7, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 7, 2014 Thanks mick that's a massive help, I have looked at the lanyard killswitch and it looks like one has a bullet connector and one has a ring what is the purpose of the ring?do I just cut these and join them in series with my existing wiring?

leeporter Posted March 7, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 7, 2014 Hi Wayne pics would be helpful also if that would be ok Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wayne509 Posted March 7, 2014 Report Share Posted March 7, 2014 Hi Wayne pics would be helpful also if that would be ok No probs .... the bike is completely stripped just now but I can still show you the wiring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wayne509 Posted March 8, 2014 Report Share Posted March 8, 2014 (edited) Sorry not the best of pics .... black and white with a plug to the kill switch Red and black on the other plug goes to the CDI located on the back of the headlight mask All the little white square plugs are really unused and go to the instrument panel on the explorer I THINK I'm right in saying the bullet connectors are for the duel map switch. The wires for the lights are often removed ... it is a separate little loom that connects down at the left of the rectifier on a white plug .... sorry I forgot to take a pic of this but If you look at the pic I took whilst stripping the bike it is the plug to the very right side of the bike Edited March 8, 2014 by wayne509 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canada280i Posted March 8, 2014 Report Share Posted March 8, 2014 you are right that the two bullet connectors are for the mapping switch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
