    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.

I bought an aftermarket part that had a 6 pin connector when the oem part had a 9 pin connector (but with 8 wires) it seems that the way I had the wires splices isn?t going to work and I?m looking for suggestions on other model parts that might fit it before I buy another piece that doesn?t work for it, thanks all in advance
 
That's the wiring diagram that I was working off of, while trying to repair the original switch at night the start button fell out and I didn't realize it until the next day and couldn't find it. Rookie mistake, I went ahead and bought another original piece and hooked it all up and I'm having the same problem so thanks to the mechanic that told me my problem was for sure that. I've narrowed the problem to the cdi or regulator, I just want to replace them both and get it out of the way but I'm wondering what the best cdi upgrade is since I've heard the oem one wasn't great to begin with.
