Is it the whole lot or just some of it that needs sorting

Its just the final bits that need sorting... I wouldnt be that mean!!Originally Posted by alanTDM
Its just where the wires around the headstock got in a mess and trying to put in some back lights for the clocks... maybe a lazy days worth of tinkering! Only other prob is I dont have a multimeter to check the wires as they arent all standard colours!! Any time and help would be greatfully apreciated!!

Called over today about midday to look at his electrics and this is what i was faced with 6 connector blocks linking two left hand switches one for horn and lights the other indicators and driving light switch so about 16 wires all told.
After dumping the block connectors and replacing them with proper ones we made sure everything worked well it did! till headlamps were put on then for some reason they refused to work nowt else either!Grrrr!
2 pm Checked wiring again nowt was changed so couldnt suss out why they weren't working.
After taking the switch apart to find out what wires were what got the driving lights working Hooray! ;D Took friggin ages >
Some wires would start one colour and end up a diff one at other end of bike.
Coultdn't understand why the person who done the wiring had two lots of switches as this made everything complicated also found out he has two power sources coming from battry but one is via the ignition switch .Andrew is now dumping the two left hand switches and getting a second hand switch with lights /horn /indicators all in one unit this will cut down the amount of wires by 50% and wil be a lot more straight forward to connect up.
Thanks for the Bagettes very yummy and coffee Andrew.
So if anyone has a spare left hand Lighting/horn /indicator switch lying around can you please get in contact with Andrew.
