Fitting Indicators (standard)

#1 PostAuthor: JohnC » Sat Sep 08, 2012 9:17 am

Hi All, I just bought this:

https://www.z-power.co.uk/merchantmanag ... cts_id=239

to fit standard indicators back on my Z1000A1 (it didn't have any before). Does anyone know if the two earth leads / blocks included in the kit are for the front or rear indicators?

I was also wondering if anyone had a wiring diagram or could tell me which colour wires in the headlight loom are used for the indicators (as you can see, electrics is not my strong point!!!)

Thanks.

John

The wiring looks as if it's been hacked about a bit but I'm thinking, the earth blocks are for the front and the large cup washers help earth the rear? I'd have thought the kit would have came with rear earth leads but I guess I'll need to make them myself :/

Wires at rear are 1 grey, 1 green, double black / yellow. I have the same at the front. I'm guessing the black / yellow is earth?

Is green the left and grey the right?

I'm certainly no expert but that looks like a front fitting kit, I've used part of one of those kits on my Ltd.

I bought a rear kit from Z1 enterprises and it comes with the earth leads, collars, grommets etc.

Black/Yellow stripe = earth.

Green = n/s

Grey = o/s

the kit looks like a complete set minus the rear earth leads

rear earth leads available here

I had to do some rewiring on me Z1000A2.
Padders recommended these guys after a chat at the Donningon show.
They were extremely helpful, highly recommended...

Cheers folks, 10 minutes with the soldering iron, some washers and old indicator leads and that's another job sorted. Indicators now working a treat!!

Hopefully I'll get a run before Julember!!

What a great club this is, thanks all :D
