My 1981 xs1100 has a resistor pack in a metal case, that connects between the kill switch and the fuse box . The resistor is connected inline, like kind of in parallel on both sends to the kill switch .
I wired a different resistor in, just like the wiring diagram shows, and the kill switch does not work.
I don't have the original, I think I tossed it in the trash when I was rebuilding the bike.
I found the specs for the original resistor pack, and the one I replaced it with is close in resistance. like a few ohms (say the replacement is a 16 ohm and the original was said to be 14 ohms)
I need the original specs of the resistor pack, and the Yamaha shop won't help, and can't get a replacement. I would hate to ruin the brand new rectifier regulator I just bought, it was kind of pricy.
where could I get a new replacement one of these? does anyone know what I need in the pack? can I build one? could some one build one for me?
