Topic: wiring help needed

[scotto]

Hi guys,I recently purchased a replacement blinker switch from Z1 parts for a 1975 CB 750,all wires matched up wire for wire but 2,I am left with a black with red tracer & a black with a brown tracer. The old switch doesn't have these colors or are they in the schematic that I can see from the original owners manual,can anyone help me,thanks Scott

How many wires does the old switch have?

New made switched have not exactly the same color codes, but similar.
Both cables brown/black and brown/red are visible in the cicruit diagram.
Clutch switch, make it possible to start with electrical starter despite no neutral, the other 12V feed from fuse box.

I marked all wires with tape and text before I connected anything. Honda circuit diagram has all details. My European sold bike (K6-76) has the old blinkers and rear lamp as the early ones had in USA. No position lamp in blinkers that you might have according to the diagrams.

PeWe OK you lost me on that one. I tried looking it up but can not find it.

I blame my keyboard... or Microsoft bug  My fingers do not always hit were aimed.
If  a gear is in (not in neutral ) the electrical starter will not work. Ok if clutch is used and switch is working.
