CB350F 1973 Electrical Help
« on: August 29, 2015, 01:50:47 PM »
What are these wires?
I think 4-9 are the tail light and turn signal but not sure about the others and the PO had it rigged up with lamp cord so none of my pre-teardown pics are any help.



And what are these little things

Ya have to love a good lamp cord wiring harness.  :D
I like poetry, long walks on the beach, and poking at dead things with a stick.

Looks like your entire tail section wiring, which includes positives and grounds for both signals, and tail and stop lamp.

The other pieces come from your front fender -- they are spacers between where the struts mount on the top of the fender and the fender itself.

Wires are for your tail section- I think from the colors I interpret, they are:

#4 - Brake signal to tail light (Green/Yellow)
#5 - Ground for Left Rear turn (Green?)
#6 - Right Turn Signal (Lt Blue?)
#7 - Ground for Right Rear turn (Green?)
#8 - Tail Light (Br/Wht)
#9 - Left Turn Signal (Orange)

#3 Turn Signal Relay (Winker)
#1 Main Power from Fuse (I think)
#2 Unknown to me

Is the silver thing next to #3 the turn signal relay?  If so it only has two connections so how can #3 connect to it, maybe something on it is wired wrong.

The piece by #3 is your turn signal flasher unit (winker). The spare wire I'm guessing is for a three-prong unit, but two prong units only use/need the two wires attached.
