Here is the chain of events;
Waking a 76 with 9k miles from approximately 3 years of sleep.
Clean carbs, oil change, new battery, it fires up yesterday with only a quick blast of starting fluid, runs fair considering the amount of vacuum leaks I identify. Repeated starts with E start all go successfully.
Today I'm back in garage to work on vacuum leaks, turn on key, neutral light is on but no action when starter button is pressed or horn, I kick it twice on choke and it fires right up.
Run for a while then shut it off, turn key back on, horn and starter work. Do this a couple more times while working on other issues, each time successful Estart, then it does it again, no horn no starter but the lights work if tested....so what is this?
Need to clean connections on back of ignition switch?
Need to clean connections in headlight bucket?
Connections inside handlebar switches?
Or check other components I haven't mentioned?
Once again, the lights work when the starter & horn don't.
Thanks
