Only my indicators and brake light work without the engine running. I thought about rewiring it when i got the bike, but i had to many other problems to deal with.. surely it wouldn't be that hard?
i seem to remember theres a red/yellow wire that runs from the stator to the switch, im thinking this is power for the lights off the stator so i swapped it with a brown and it worked lights then, ill have a play at weekend,
Mines the same NORFE without engine running just get the break light & Indicators to work. I Could do with some info on that myself as its a right pain I had my engine overheat at one stage so I had to do a quick pull over and kill the engine I live in the country where they don`t have street lamps (TRAMPS) lol. So that was a gutter as I was on a national speed limit stretch in the pitch black darkness had to piss in the rad tank as temp fix till I got it back home (Not Recommended either) lol
Thanks mate, i get what you have got to do, i was just hoping to see how you have done it.. before i start butchering my loom, lol
But no worries, i have been having a think about how to go about it since you posted up how straight forward it is. I think i have it sussed, haha ..i will let you know how i get on. I will feel a lot safer knowing that if i ever break down on a dark dual carriageway, I've got more then a couple of crappy little arrow indicators to let other road users i'm there :)
On a side note, found much of interest while out with the metal detector? I've been toying with the idea of getting my dads out of storage. Now i'm living in Suffolk i want in on some of that Anglo Saxon gold! lol
yeah well thats my theory, plus i thort u needed side lights for the mot ????
just gotback from the fields, been looking for an iron age fort sed to be round here. lots of roam stuff round here aswell
not r8 gud 2nite found an old coin 1863 pretty worn so not looked proply, no gold tho...a few other metal things probly bits of machines its all soaking now will look in morn
good hobby tho plenty of fresh air and piece n quiet
Just done this mod, and lights etc work great...but Brake doesnt work? Red lights on back but not sure if its showing brake light on or night light on?when i pres either brakes there is no change? Before i carried out mod, the brake lights worked without the engine running?
funnily - changed the wires round on the tail tidy and seemed to sort it??? even though was working fine before? just waiting for my new igntion barrel and i'll be happy then. As i'm still running the igntion bypassed
