Message: <blockquote data-quote="mcgovern61" data-source="post: 176241" data-attributes="member: 59">I had already taken off the '81 left side controller and the innerds were pretty much done for, so I cut the wires and pulled them out of the protective cover.  Since they are the same as what is in the headlight wiring mess, I knew I could salvage some of the more unique connectors.  If you look in the pictures, there are 4 way connectors on the orange and power blue wires that come from the controller.  Salvaging these wires and connectors allows me to keep the new hazard button wiring color coded with the right wires, wire size and the 4 way connectors allow me to connect the system via the original style bullet connectors.All i need to do is create a new set of connector wires to attach to the original 4 way connectors and bridge them over to the new ones:Here, I have salvaged the old 4 way bullet connectors and wire:<img src="https://classicgoldwings.com/forum/gallery/image.php?album_id=10171&image_id=29161" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />I cut some of the wire off of them and then soldered new bullet connectors to the end to create bridge wires:<img src="https://classicgoldwings.com/forum/gallery/image.php?album_id=10171&image_id=29160" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />I installed the bridge wires and connected them to the original 4 way connectors and now to the old 4 way connectors with the wires running to the new switch:<img src="https://classicgoldwings.com/forum/gallery/image.php?album_id=10171&image_id=29159" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /></blockquote>
