    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. 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...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Okay, I have two 4 prong plugs on my ignitor one black one red. I know where the black plug lands. my question is with the red plug. I have 4 wires, a white, a orange w/wht, a black w/white,and a black w/yel. Black w/yel goes to the negative of one coil, white goes to the negative of the other coil. The orange with white splits into 3 wires, two of them leading to the positive of the coils and than the other leg going ???? And then there is the black w/wht where does it go??? For those reading this I am building a new extremly simplified wiring harness, and dont understand what the two wires function or destinations are.

The White and the Black/Yellow go to the two coils.
The Orange/White wire is the switched power from a fuse that feeds both the coils and the ignitor, via the kill switch (and also used by the start button) when ignition is on.
The Black/White is the ground for the ignitor. It is a tail from the common Black/White running the length of the harness from the battery.

Hope this helps you.
 
okay So I just need to feed 12v to the coil and ignitor on that wire from a switch, and by killing that power kills thr bike?
 
You have it and the starter button is after the kill switch using the same power line.
