    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

So here is something I worked on while waiting on parts for my apocalypse bike. It basically ignores the charging system and focuses solely on wiring the ignitor in a simple to view way. I'm open to any criticism or critiques on it. I eventually intend to add it all together into one cohesive diagram for the entire bike.

Looks ok except for the wiring between fuse, battery, r/r and ign switch

Just a comment: In the stock wiring; Ignition fuse is 10amp, and also supplys the starter button-solenoid circuit.

There's no ignitor in that diagram? Am I missing something obvious?


Copy that, I'll drop it down.

You are powering your coils from a pair of potentials (Switched +12V and ground) right?

If you just remove what you think is providing that your schematic will be OK. If you want to provide that then follow the schematic I reposted.
 
The factory powers the coils from the ignition switch, T'eed into the ignitor. The way I am reading the factory diagram, is it takes four inputs from the crank trigger, then a 12v and ground from the charging system, and outputs to the coils, 12v and ground.

Nothing is powered from the ignition switch except the fuse box.

The fusebox distributes through 10 amp fuses to all accessory circuits Signal, IGN, Headamp, ACC.

The path from battery ==> coils and ignitor are powered from O/W from the fuse box.

Battery to "T" to input side of IGN SW is RED
After Ignition switch it is Orange to fuse box
After Fusebox IGN is O/W.
