Brown/blue wire in headlamp bucket
« on: May 04, 2020, 04:23:55 PM »
I have a 76 cb750 with a unplugged brown/blue and black wired that share insulation in my headlamp bucket. Any idea what these belong to? I cannot seem to find them in my wiring diagram or shop manual.

Turn signals will work without it? Also it (brown/blue) does not seem to have a mate in the bucket.

It was for a beeper connected to the turn signal that would beep to remind you that your turn signals were on. These are/were usually the first parts to come off of the bike upon purchase as they are quite annoying. Leave it disconnected.
