Is this green wire just an extra?
« on: November 27, 2010, 02:17:58 PM »
I don't think this wire hooks up to anything on my 750 ko. I've seen other photos where it is just hanging there. Anyone know?

There is a type of flasher that needs it (has three terminals). If you have the two terminal type, it is not necessary. I think since it is green, it is a ground.

I recently bought a signal flasher module specifically for led signals that has a third ground wire. I guess I could hook it up here.
This project started in confusion and will end in disarray.

Excellent. That's what I thought.
