    GS1100L front blinker wiring

    Hello all.
    I've just removed a windjammer and installed a salvage headlight and blinkers. Most of the wiring was self explanatory due to like connectors. I've got several left to connect the front blinkers, but too many and too confusing. The wiring diagram on Cliff's site didn't clear things up for me.

    Has anybody come across this dilemma?

    I've spent an hour and a half trying to organize pics and attach them, it's not working.
    The wires are
    double light blue
    double black
    double brown
    single grey
    double black/ white tracer
    single black /white tracer

    Each blinker has a black and brown wire.

    Just thought I'd try again to post a photo.
    Any help at all would be a blessing.
    Thank you

      Check which blinkers you have. Are they twin filament bulbs for daytime running lights?

        The black and whites are grounds. The brown I believe is unused.

          Cyrano, the bulbs have a single filament.

            I was just thinking you might have the wiring for twin filaments going to single blinkers.

            I would put a meter across them (or a test bulb) and switch things on to see what does what.

              Well, I took another look at the wiring diagram and the connections worked out fine. Just as the diagram, and Gustovh said, the brown isn't used. There are a couple that aren't used actually. I had some crossed, that's why they came on all the time, now only when they're blinking as single filament should be right.
              Thanks for the replies
              Could have saved time by printing a better quality diagram from Cliffs site right off the bat. The first was hard to read.
