Hi ,,I am working on getting a new to me 1980 GS850 up and running again ,,Bought it a few weeks ago off a Man as a non goer ,,he said that everything was OK ,,Just need a good going over , ha ha
So Far I have removed the Carbs ,cleaned and fitted full Carby Kits ,set floats and needles ,,Fitted new O-Rings to inlet Manifolds ,
I then checked the wiring because nothing was working ,,I found that wires had been plug into the wrong places ,Wires had been stripped and jumped to each other etc etc ,,
After 2 nights I now have everything working up the front of the Bike ,,EXCEPT the Start Button ,,,
The Blinkers ,Horn ,Lights ,Hi-Low ,,Brake Light ,Flasher ,Neutral Light ,Oil Light are all working now ,,,
Also found the wiring has been played around with at the Coils as well ,,It also has one Black and one White Coil fitted on it ,,
I have NO SPARK at all at the Plugs when I wind the Motor over by sorting out solenoid because the starter Button is not working ?,
Just asking if someone can please tell me if the Coils under the Tank need to have a EARTH wire on them as well as the 2 wires coming from the Wiring Loom?? ,,
Also what Color Wire goes onto what side of each Coil ,
On the LEFT Coil,,,,,,One of the Wires is ORANGE/WHITE and the other wire is WHITE
On the Right Coil it has a ORANGE/WHITE wire and a BLACK with White strip which is a earth) I think ?? ,
I understand that the BLACK with WHITE Strip wire is a EARTH ,,,
What I am asking is (Sitting on the Bike)
Which Colored wire goes onto which Coil , ,,Does the ORANGE/White and the WHITE wire go to the LEFT Coil ,,If so ,, what side of the Coil does the White wire plug on to ,,The left or Right pole on the Coil ,
and the same Question on the Right Coil ,what side of the Right Coil does the ORANGE/White wire go ,,,
thank you for your help .I hope someone under stands what I am saying ,,, regards Phil
