KZ440 LTD turn signal help was created by Desmond
I bought a 1981 KZ440 LTD for my girlfriend that I am fixing up. It had a Jetter Fairing with working lights. I took the fairing off, added a stock headlight and am putting directionals on the bike. The front wire harness was neatly tucked in a bag under the triple tree and looks unmolested.

I searched on this forum and noticed that my directional wires are different colors from the schematics and posts mentioned. However, I have the turn signals added.

What looks like the running light wire (factory two female bullet connector) is a white wire with a blue tracer. This is battery 12+ and live. I need to follow this wire back but need some assistance in where I should look. Can someone point me in the right direction?

Headlight works as it should. All 4 directionals work great, no running lights... or the running lights are on all the time, regaurdless of key position.

Thanks so much!!!

Hello, white/blue is 12+ accessory feed circuit, along with orange/black 12-, disconnect around battery if not using,, directionals generally use green(left) and grey,(right) and black/yellow, 12-, if the groupings in you headlight are still sleeved there, should be a blue with them which is the running light feed from ignition switch, check with meter, this is from. the 650 diagram which should be similar, good luck
