Dang! G/S warning lights....

[Trippy]

Found it Keith

So who's got another plug hiding in the shed?


Daft Q but what is stopping you getting some connectors to put on the wires and connecting each one individually?

 

[(RIP) Proff]

Not me I'm afraid

BUT it's been great looking through this thread again
Bakerlonglegs, the THEN amateur and now a fully fledged bike restorer as anyone who saw his 80g/s at East mids last year will testify

Plus the fact that he is only Tosser who can sit on 101 with his feet flat on the floor

 

[Trippy]

What kind of twat designed this?
Going to have to put my thinking cap on

 

[Rob Farmer]

Personally I'd solder leads onto each pin, heat shrink over each lead and pin to prevent it shorting out and then fit a multiblock connector onto the lead. A connector like this MC8 Linky so that it can easily be undone but is secure when the bikes running.

 

[(RIP) Proff]

Dohhh'HH Rob.
He's pinched that pic from earlier on in the thread and you commented on the wiring then !!!

 

[Rob Farmer]

Bugger!

Thats what I was thinking too.

F*ck off, I'm ok with mechanical stuff, I just ain't done much for a good few years so like to ask questions, after all thats how you learn isn't it.

Go Trippy go

I hope Devon has a Fire Brigade

The circuit on the light board looks a bit 'tired' so not 100% sure it'll even work but I'll give it a bash (not literally).

 

[(RIP) Proff]

Go Trippy go

Where you get the cheerleader smiley ??
when he gets a dead short it'll be these smileys >>


Aww go on Trippy you know I'm only joking,

For a Club member you ain't so bad

 

[Trippy]

Oh Ye of little faith ..

 

[(RIP) Proff]

hadn't you got any other colour wire ?????
FFS you are supposed to be able to identify whats what

 

[Trippy]

Starting at the top and going clockwise I number 1 to 8 and know which number goes to which lamp. then down to a strip connector, starting with 1 on the left and working across.

I was never going to get eight 6" bits of wire that match the bikes colour coding.

I'm fast going off the idea of GIVING you that oil pressure gauge etc

 

[Colt]

just caught up on this update Trippy

STOPyou don't need to do that lash up.

have you no airhead friends who have this rare spare part?

i can get my original sheep friend to look in the shed

 

[Trippy]

STOPyou don't need to do that lash up.

Lash up!!

Don't you start as well

 

[Colt]

so do you want the rare part i have
its the white plastic connector you need?

 

[(RIP) Proff]

I DID say to Mr Trippy that he ought to drop a PM to that nice Mr Sheep t'up North in Preston.
He was adamant he was doing it himself.
Actually he's done a very neat job but I'm not telling him that.

One thing I would recommend is to get a set of felt tip pens and mark the proper colour on the last inch or so before the junction box.
But I'm not going to suggest that

 

[Trippy]

so do you want the rare part i have

WELL, let me see how I get on tomorrow because the block connector at the end of the loom where it joined the TT lamps has to come off as well and at the moment I'm quite pleased with my efforts so far.


But .... I may come back to you if it all goes Pete Tong
