    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.

  • 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.

Here it is,

brand new gs1000s katana wiring harness. Everything seems to be working correctly except the left control.

When I turn on the low beams, the low beam light comes on but so does the hi beam blue indicator dash light along with the signal amber dash lights. when I hit the highs the indicator light goes out and so do the signal amber lights but the headlight is on hi beam.

I have tried three sets of clocks... all the same,
I have switched three diff controlers left and right, two diff sig relays. Everything I have tried are 82 components. unplug the signals the indicator lights go out. plug one front in that light comes on, plug in paired rear and stays on still.

What am I missing here????????????????????????????????????????????????
What really has me thrown in the highbeam being reversed
 
The new harness has the plugs wired wrong. Time to troubleshoot with a test light!
 
I put the same harness on my last kat build with no problems. Ordered three of them and this is number three. Can't be a plug wired wrong??

Has to be something simple...like...?? I'm a freakin idiot!

Sounds to me like a bad earth somewhere, normally when idiot lights come on with others it is an earthing problem.
 
Well, after a thousand hrs of looking today I have found that the harness is th problem. I had another new harness that I bought with this problem one and hooked it up and it works correctly.

Looks like one of the new harnesses was defective. There's two days I will never get back.

On the positive side I have mapped out the katana clocks wiring and will be posting the schematics shortly. Should help anyone who is putting on aftermarket clocks or just needs to trouble shoot the stock ones.
 
NOpe,

all the wires are correct but the wiring is wrong???

I layed out two harnesses(new) side by each on the shop floor. I hooked up the L/R controlers, headlight, ignition and fusebox. Hooked bat to neg and positive. ONe worked right the other didn't.

So now I have replaced the harness with the other new one I had and it works correctly. I fired the zxkat up tonight and I am sending the other harness back to the store.
