[QUOTE="dan filipi, post: 171431, member: 54"] In the last few days I've gotten a couple PM's asking about this mod I did to the 1100, how to hook up a relay to take the load off the ignition switch so I thought a new thread would help out. Ignore everything in this picture except for the connection diagram in the right corner.... [img]https://classicgoldwings.com/forum/gallery/image.php?album_id=172&image_id=19125[/img] 1. Connect a frame ground wire to [b]terminal 85[/b] 2. The black wire [b]from[/b] your ignition switch connects to [b]terminal 86[/b] 3. Fused + from the battery connects to [b]terminal 30/51[/b] 4. + power supply to your new fuse box connects to [b]terminal 87[/b] What this does is....the black from your ignition switch supplies + power to close a contact inside the relay. When it closes, + power is continued thru it to supply power directly from your battery to power the fuse box. This not only takes the load off the ignition switch, my lights got brighter. You can get a 12 volt relay like this from lots of places like Auto zone, Pep boys, marine supply maybe. Should cost under $10 or so. I'd use a 20 amp fuse, 15 is a little small for the load. I'm looking up what the fuse panel feed wire color is on the 1000 and 1200 then I'll edit this post. Edit: It's black on all 4 cylinder wings. [/QUOTE]
