MarkCR750:
I have decided not to have an ignition switch on my CR replica, I have an isolator switch near the battery to kill the electrics, here is a picture of the plug that goes into the original ignition switch, please could someone tell me which wires I should connect together so that the ignition is always on, electrics aren't my strong point!

Bryanj:
Just ignition, no lights Red to Black

SteveD CB500K0:
Beat me to it Bryan.

Red is +12V
Black is switched +12V

So connect the red to the black and you're away.

I should have explained myself better , I am fitting lights (and indicators), using the original loom and handlebar switchgear, the front light will be a small white fog mounted inside the perspex screen,  just to give a white light at the front for safety on the road (micro indicators also fitted inside the screen) and the rear will be mounted to the numberplate again with micro indicators.

So what I need to achieve is a wiring configuration at the ignition switch connector that mimics the key being turned to the on position and left in that position permanently (the electrics are killed by the isolator switch I have fitted near the battery), please could you tell me how to wire it so that the above is achieved, cheers Mark.

Hi Mark,

As Bryan & Steve say... but for the lights separately connect the Brown to Brown /White stripe..... as shown in the "Position 1" illustration.

Can't quite find a diagram to match your "5th" wire (brown / yellow) ... but if the above leaves you with instrument illuminations etc... but no head lamp... then also connect the B/Y directly to the B/W as well.

Ie... all 3 Browns together, and (separately) Black to Red
