Sorry for this being my first post, but this is the first that I have needed to ask a question. I otherwise lurk as a guest. With that said, I am having an issue wiring in my headlight on my 1979 (2F0-006501+). I have eliminated the following: Light checker, reserve lighting unit, safety relay, turn signal flasher relay, and flasher cancelling unit. All I am running on the bike is: Headlight, taillight, stock (left side control) headlight hi/lo switch w/ horn, stock (right side control) electric start/killl switch, and stock key ignition.
The wiring diagram in my Clymer manual for 'Late XS650E' indicates some of these bikes had a seperate 'headlight switch'. My bike does not, as the note in the manual states that some did not. My question is then: Where does the Red/Yellow wire on the fuse designated for the headlight go in my harness, rather than to the 'headlight switch' that my bike does not have but is drawn in the wiring diagram in the Clymer?
The end of the day, I want to run power to the headlight switch off of the Red/Yellow fuse. Also, is Blue/Yellow on the headlight hi/lo switch the wire that needs to get this power?
This may be vague to start, but perhaps some of you 1979 gurus can get the converstation rolling and get me heading into the right direction. Thanks in advance.
