How does power get to the ignition switch

Akanoodle · July 23rd, 2013, 03:58 PM

After the leads off the battery go to the ground(-) and the starter solenoid-starter(+). How does it get to the key, do those two wires over the main fuse (on the harness) send it to the ignition switch, will a bad starter solenoid result in a no power situation, I can jump the solenoid and get the bike running but stil no power at the gauges

Hmm, reading up on basic electronics could help you, along side a multimeter, I don't want to sound condecending, but it will help you a lot.
