Mystery wires

#1 Post by GRA400C » Wed Mar 02, 2016 6:38 pm

I have no idea what goes here. I know the dark brown and black are for the turn signal but that's it. There is a light brown a 4 wire plug in and another black wire next to a blue and yellow wire. Any help would be great.

blue-yellow + black wires together are for the sidestand safety switch.

The only 4 wire connector plug I see with light brown wires is for the removable fuse box.
Is this an RZ, or RZV?

Diagram here: click on the box that appears in the bottom right corner of the screen that opens up.

This is for a rz500 not rzv. Sorry I meant there is light brown with a female end on it then a 4 wire plug in. I should have been more clear.

From what I see it's a cancrlation unfit. In guessing turn signal cancel unit. #30 on that diagram.

Pretty sure the white connector and single brown wire are for the sidestand control unit.
It hangs on the lower oil tank bracket and looks like this:

The flat spade connector wires look like the sidestand switch wires that someone cut the connector off.

There is a specific electrical wiring for Canadian 52X version.
You have a side-stand security switch only for Canada.
Also the front lights are always on, and you don't have lights switch on the right nor pass switch on the left.
