Connections in the headlight shell

Also the electrics are totally stock. They have not been modified or improved or messed with in any way.

Is this an ED or ESD?

I don't have another O/G wire with a male bullet. In fact I don't have any O/G with a male connector. The two unused O/G wires I do have are, one with a female bullet, and one that went to the block connector I have two wires running directly from the front brake lever.One is W with a red tube and the other is O. Both these have male bullets.The only thing that I can think of is before the block connector fell apart there were two pigtails connecting I'm not sure what. One of these may have somehow connected the R/Bl on the harness side to the O/G in the block connector.

Did you see this? It might eliminate some of your confusion.
1.)(Red/Blue)R/Bl is F Brake switch and is paired with O/G (look in the kill switch area of the schematic)

Am I looking at the wrong end of the bike? Gee, that's a good question. Which side has the big round spotlight thing on it?

I posted this picture to add a better explanation to the Kill Switch mods for the SSPB. It might help you as well. It is for the GS1100EZ/ED but is very similar to most other bikes if you look at the descriptions here.

It's an ED.
I'm looking at the schematic and I see that the R/Bl wire attaches to one side of the kill switch and the O/G wire attaches to the other. The only R/Bl wire on the bike is on the main harness side and ends with a female bullet connector. The two unused O/G wires are also on the harness side and neither of them has a male bullet connector. One has a female bullet connector and the other went to the block connector. My question is, How would I get either of the O/G wires to connect to the R/Bl wire if the connectors are not compatible?
I have three wires coming from the starter button/kill switch housing. One is Y/G, one is O/W, and one is O/W with a red tube. That's all. I have two wires coming directly from the front brake lever. One is W with a fed tube and one is O. That's it.
I may be missing something here, but I don't see what it is.

Are you really really sure it is not the brake switch?

There are three switches. the one of the left is a brake switch.


Do you see the first numbered item in the post? Do think that is wrong?

Have you found the front brake switch on the schematic yet? Cause that is where those two bullets go!!!!!

I was carefully going over the schematic and I though I had a revelation, so I went out to the garage. My excitement was premature. I'll have to study this a little more. I'll be back tonight and I believe I'll be able to post some pictures.

Okay, I'm still trying to sort things out. Here is where I am. I see the three switches on the schematic. The left is the front brake light switch. The middle is the kill switch, and the right is the starter button, switch. There are two wires coming out of the front brake switch which are not color coded on the schematic. These have to be the W wire with the red tube and the O wire. Both these have male bullets. I connected one of these to the R/Bl wire and the other to the O/G wire. This, I think completes the R/Bl to O/G connection you indicated had to be made. I'm still not seeing a brake light or a tail light for that matter. I can't say any more because I really haven't had much time to devote to this over the last few days. I should be able to get back to it tomorrow and hopefully I will have made some progress.
