Lights off 81special

[Michael Vidovic]

Hi
Have just put on new PMA from Mikes SS. Having problem getting headlight to work. Did work for a while and then just didn't. It's something to do with the yellow wire and where I have to hook it into the new system.
Any ideas?

Got a good ground?

Yep
Could try bypassing the original system. Just have to work out where the yellow goes now that I have the new PMA unit in.

Hook the yellow wire to anyone of the three wires coming out of the stator. That's how they did it stock.
As the stator starts to create power, some of that power flows on the yellow to trip the safety relay.

But will it still run the same way it did before..through the extra lighting unit? Or do I bypass that too?
