B12 ignition - resistor?

[Sam-Jaffa]

snipped from the wiring diagram, showing what connections the ignition makes and where i have marked in blue shows which circuit the resistor should be in

BTW - how did we get into 'side stand' switch deletion?

Frankly if peeps can't work out how, even with limited electrical knowledge, then they shouldn't be asking!. It is there for a reason - may be for the peeps who have to ask how to delete it? Sorry if that offends anyone ...............................deal with it LOL!

That is good point have to admit. Man hope this is last time I have man flu so spending more time on net then doing stuff. I must have temporary gone soft.

Got ya did not see what you was getting at with your first drawing did not realize where you were showing the resistor

Ok, just found the Mk2 B12 CDI unit and part of the wire loom. It has one big plug with 16 positions, of which 12 are used.

No orange/red wire though.

Does anyone have a wiring diagram for this bike?

Here you go matey

Thanks

I have measured the resistance between orange/yellow and black/white on the ignition switch in the on position. It turns out to be 150 ohms. So a 100 ohm resistor is enough?

[Sam-Jaffa]

yeah, its 100ohm 0.5 watt

thanks

Here's my ropey sketch of the pinouts. The bottom left pin (on the block of 8) is connected to  earth via a 100ohm resistor. 

Hi.I'm having the no spark issue as well. the engine spins over but no spark. Are you saying to cut the or/r wire on the lower left of the 8 block and run it to the bk/w wire on the 4 block and just blank off the cut ends. Thanks, Marty...

Hi. I'm having the no spark issue as well. The engine spins over but there is no spark.  Are you saying to cut the Or/R wire on the lower left of the 8 block and splice a 100 ohm resistor into the Bk/W wire feeding the 4 block, and then just blank off the cut ends of the wires to let them wave in the wind? Thanks, Marty.

I see this is an old post but I’ve been looking at a modified 2003 600 bandit and trying to tidy up the already modified wiring with a Lucas 3 connection ignition switch. While tidying the negatives I didn’t realise what looked like a poorly made connection between two different coloured wires contained what now looks like the previously mentioned 100k resistor, am I likely to have blown the controller or anything else? Cheers in advance if anyone is still following this. Regards, Steve.

No, removal of the resistor just means it won't start!

Dunno about the mk2 but the Mk1 600 Blandit does not have a resistor in the ignition switch. I use one on my Harris Magnum and took it apart to check before fitting.
