If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

Hello all, I am new to this forum and I have a question. I am trying to rebuild my 1983 GS1100es original gauge and am having a bit of uncertain trouble. I am using a 1985 GS700 tach in an attempt to rebuild the 1983 GS1100es tach. the main problem I am having is determining where to splice in the 3 extra lights that are used in the 1983 vs only 6 in the 1985 version. In the photo below the 83' tach is on the left.

The 3 middle lights are used in the 83' tach and not in the 85'. They are the tail/stop, Battery, and Head lamp. I will probably need to move lights from the 85' tach so that they illuminate in the correct space. The lower half of the picture is the back where the lights splice into the wiring harness. My main question is, when I add the 3 new lights, where and what color wires do i splice them into?? Can anyone provide a diagram showing this, or send a photo of the back of their tach so I can see where the wires connect or what colors they are? I know I can search on google, however, I can not find a diagram that is specifically for a 1983 GS1100es. Thank you all for any info you might have.
 
Thanks, I?ve looked there. I hope one of those will help. I am really hoping that someone has that very tach and can send a pic of the wiring harness so I can know for sure how things fit together.
