Ok ...... it would appear that I'm electrically dyslexic
background info -
82 1100E with brand new OE loom, sh775 installed as per the umpteen previous threads and comments with single point earth system (basically everything relevant has a dedicated earth), dyna coils , stock ignition, control panel box and self cancelling indicator box retained, brand new OE handlebar switches.
the bike has power everywhere , all the warning lights work as they should, all contacts either new or vigorously cleaned.
2 issues/questions ( to start)
1. See attached photo ..... I've put a dedicated connection straight from the 775 output into the loom by cutting and connecting into the red lead coming out of the 4 pin plug. In this area I now have 3 unused wires on the plug .... a solid yello , a white blue and a white red - I'm assuming these are redundant feeds to the old RR ???
plus in the same boot I have 3 , loose, male bullet connectors - a solid yellow, light green/white and white blue ..... do these need looping into the loom or are they redundant
2. Getting no love from the starter solenoid ...... if I bridge the two poles the motor cranks and I get an enormous spark from the plugs .... I've tried 3 different solenoids and all the same so I'm guessing the connection between handlebar switch and solenoid is awry .... looking at the yellow/green wire as suspect
appreciate any comments or input IMG_2273.jpg
