Bandit swap with bandit ignition switch need help

[Guest]

Hey guys, i had to switch over to a bandit ignition switch so it would mount to the triple and look clean. here is my problem. I have all lights except the tail light. when I put a meter on the tail light I get 8 volts. 12.6 everywhere else. Now the new switch has 6 wires. the old had 4. completely baffled. Any one done this?

GS igniotion swtich has contacts specific to the tail light. This is related to the "park" position that maybe others do not have.

But overall here is the wires in harness for the GS switch:
RED. Power from Main Fuse
ORANGE. (powered by Red when ON) Orange wire is for Power back to the fuse block for Head, Ignition & Signal
GREEN. Power from the light circuit that is powered by the Signal fuse.
BROWN. (Powered by Green when switch in ON, Powered by Red when switch in Park.) Brown wire To the taillight, taillight only, no other lights.

Would have to look at Bandit schematic ... or play with Bandit swtich and figure out which is switched to which in what position.

.

,,, or you could put the Brown wire along with the Orange wire (and abandon the Green wire, cap or tape it off). That will get your taillight working but will not be on the signal fuse like it is suppose to be, if any short circuit or overload on the taillight it will then blow the main fuse not the signal fuse.

Maybe can find which other two leads of the bandit swtich are connected together when in ON position, and put the Green and Brown on those, so Taillight will then be on the signal fuse.
