New Wiring Harness, different colors!
« on: June 07, 2010, 09:31:49 AM »
I bought a new wiring harness for my 75 550f, but when I tried to hook it up, the wires don't match up. The old harness seems to have green/red wires where the new has black. Also, some of the ends don't snap together, ie - some places where a connection should be made are now both male ends. Should I splice those babies together?  ;D

Sounds like its a different model loom to me
Semi Geriatric ex-Honda mechanic and MOT tester (UK version of annual inspection). Garage full of "projects" mostly 500/4 from pre 73 (no road tax in UK).

Remember "Its always in the last place you look" COURSE IT IS YOU STOP LOOKIN THEN!

It might be a 76f, but it seems like they should be very similar.  ???
