I have a ‘79 xs400(2F). My most favorite bike I’ve ever owned, and I’ve owned six.
I have a motogadget m.button and m.unit blue. I replaced my contact points with an electronic ignition which works great with stock wiring harness.
I ripped out my old stock harness and ran my own wiring.
I bought a Rick’s Motorsports R/R (model 10-411). The wiring is different than stock:
6-pin connector:
x3 yellow => x3 white alternator
x1 green => black to ground
x1 red => +battery pos
3-pin connector:
x1 white => brown connecting to ignition switch, starter solenoid (red/white wire), and m.unit lock
x1 black => green to ?
x1 green => black to ground
From my starter solenoid, it’s going to engine frame for ground, to battery positive, to m.unit positive, then there are two wires: blue/white going to start output, and red/white going to switched power (brown wiring connecting to m.lock, ignition switch, regulator (regulator white).
I get power to all my lights and everything. I can’t get the electronic ignition to start. I have the coils plugged directly into the ignition-out on the m.unit blue. I’m not using any kill switch of any kind or the starter relay. What am I missing?
