Igniter wiring

[Guest]

I just purchased an igniter for my 83 GS750 and I am curious about the wiring on the igniter.
If the 2 wires from the signal generator are hooked up backwards to the igniter will it fry it or will it simply fire 180 degrees out of time?
The 2 wires are green and blue, and on mine they are cut, and the connector from the signal generator is missing.
Any ideas?
Thanks.

This part. Get the color wiring diagram from BassCliff's site and track them down.

I am wondering if you have the correct part.

You say you bought an ignitor for your '83 750, but your signature shows '82 750.

I know that some of the bikes got different ignitors some time during the '82 model year, not sure about the 750s. The '83 ignitors are not compatible with the earlier bikes, as the ignition advance was built into the ignitor, instead of using a mechanical arrangement on the crank.
