I have a 79 special. I just installed a fairly nice wiring harness that was an eBay buy of my fathers. Little did I know, the wiring harness is for an '80 standard or at least appearing that way. When I took the harness off, the two front looms crossed under the triple trees before they went up towards the headlight area. I figured this was a 'regular' move so I did it on the way back through with the new one. Well, according to my turn signal wires, this was a good move. My left loom has what can barely be called connectors and I figured all/most of what they went to via comparing the 79F diagram to the 80G. A few odd connection will have to be used, but I can figure that out.
The loom for the right side has the headlight connector and I found the turn signal quiet easily, but the rest is just out there. How can I figure this out?
I have [R,L,T](x2) and G/W. My front brake (light?) is going to take that G/W I'm assuming? What is dangling there now is a G/W,T for the brake. Might I also add that I have no battery or the starter solenoid (right now). I'm pulling them from a '80G parts bike soon.
Another question is involving my controls. I'm upgrading to MikesXS LHC # 24-2061 and RHC # 24-2062. I have plenty of confidence that the left will be pretty plug and play, but the right has got me worried. The controls I have now are a 4 wire with the duel R/Y and the new harness has the 5 wire with the trip R/Y. So I guess the question is how do the parts above fit the '80G harness or am I going to have to play master mind?
I never really studied a wiring diagram until I got this bike. I've been looking at it for 3 days. It's deffintely no B&S setup, haha. So I'm learning a lot. Kudos to all you wiring gods out there.
HELP!!! PLEASE!
