Well here is what I did to make sure. I used the old plug in and spliced the exact color route to make sure. This way I know for sure.

Question? The old relay wire, is one with green and red, the other is red and yellow. The new one is yellow with green stripe, and yellow with red stripe. How do I know for sure to keep the same path as orginial?

The bike only has 2500. Km on it or about 1800 miles it. What is the function of the relay? Once it's started does juice flow through constant or is its job only at starting . I'm trying to think of why it would just die and then start back up. Or is this usually the first sign of a relay on decline?

I'm going to say the relay is toast as well. Yeah no diode. All of these issues is indicitative of the progressive decline until 1 hour ago. No wonder, I'll post tomorrow. I'm sure my high reading was due to good contact, the relay just said no.

Once more can I go to Cycle Salvage here in Boise and find a relay that will get me by until I have enough cash to get the right one. What are the parameters I can get away with?

I double checked for a screw up and will check again tomorrow. Is the 14.15 reading indicitative of the relays last rights, before passing? Is this part generic, can I just go grab one ?

Just to double check. Take a screwdriver and touch both of them at the same time correct? With key on? Brake on as well just like I was going to start it normal?
