    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.

While putting the original headlight and turn signals, I came across a brown wire that I couldn't figure out. It didn't seem to go anywhere. It was plugged into the connector to the fairing, but the wiring diagram seems to support the fact that it goes nowhere, or does it? I've never been too proficient in reading a wiring diagram.

Goes into the headlight bucket and remains unattached. Its an aux power wire for running secondary lights, etc etc..
 
In your fairing, it would have run the yellow marker lights beside the headlight.
Without the fairing, it's up to you to decide what it will power. :D

By the way, there is no apparent problem with your schematic-reading skills. :clap:

Thanks guys, maybe I'll get one of those police lights for when I'm in a hurry.:lol:

Where did you get that color wiring diagram?
 
It's in the back of my Clymer from 1985. It's got diagrams for all of GS750 fours from 1977-1982.
 
I have the Haynes.....black and white diagrams. Much prefer the color.
Thanks, Guess I'll get the Clymer or some crayons
