Kill Switch

[OldMan]

OK, thanks for your patience Herb, I do appreciate it.

So I have found the where the join is.

There are three O/w wires: 2 definitely from the coils (labelled 2,3) and I assume from the fuel pump relay (labelled 4) and then they are joined with power added red wire (labelled 6) at the soldered joint. From that join O/w (labelled 1) goes to the ignitor under the seat and the other O/w goes to the headlight bucket (labelled 5).

So if I disconnect the power (6) from that join. And leave them all connected as is, but then use power in the headlight bucket to O/l of the killswitch - that might resolve it, yeah?

Can confirm... it works! Booyah!

Thanks for hanging in there with me!
I have had two auto electricians in the past look at it - one couldn't find the fix, the other had it for 2 hours and rang me saying he refused to work on it as the system was so old etc with too many relays... blah blah blah! So happy! All electrical gremlins now fixed.

Glad you found the issue.

Do you know where the red wire comes from? Considering the issues you have had, I hope that the person used a fused wire.

I would be more comfortable if you used the ignition circuit, the Orange/yellow from the side stand relay to power the circuit. That way the whole circuit would be fused with the ignition fuse.
