All right guy's. I'm normally pretty good about putting back together what I took apart. Heck, I even took picture's of the wiring. But unfortunately, I lost the pic's off of my computer some how.
This wiring is kickin my butt. And I'm ashamed to admit, I never could read a schematic.
I have a mixture of a new wiring harness, and a set of coils and point's a guy gave me that is supposed to be hooked up like it's supposed to go. I think I either got too many wire's, or not enough,,, lol.
If you guy's could help me get this stuff hooked up, I sure would be grateful.
BTW. This is on my 72 XS2. I'm finally starting to put it back together after being tore apart for 2 year's. I'm starting with the back half of the frame. No triple tree, or forward stuff on there yet.
Let's start with the coil's. Here's the wire's coming out of the coil's. The yellow wire has each coil's brown wire attached to it. The yellow wire has obviously been cut.
1. Where does the yellow wire go.
This is the orange wire's from the coil's. They are attached to about a 12" long orange and gray wire. Those wire's are attached to the condenser, and point's. I believe this might be correct. But that leaves me a lot of extra wire's.
2. Is this correct.
This is what I have coming out of the main harness right at the coil's. Assuming the coil's don't get plugged into any of this, what the heck does.
3. What goes to all of this.
First guess. Again, assuming the coil's are correct, I have the 2 brown wire's coming from the voltage regulator,,the 2 on the right side of this pic,,, connected like this. The remaining orange and gray are both double female connector's. Then there's the single orange male.
4. Is this correct.
I think that's enough to get me started. I find this very frustrating. Heck, I'm having a hard time even trying to relay what I have. So please be patient, and help if you can. Oh ya. Speak sloooooow.
