Inline Fuse Help

Hey all, I was messing around with my 83 750 Seca when I created a problem for myself

I had most of the electrical bundle behind the headlight disconnected. Upon putting it back together I noticed the inline fuse (the one for the speedo, tach, and tail light lamps) had become torn off from its connection. My question is where I do reconnect this too?

The fuse has one wiring end connected to the Red,Brown, and Blue female connector for the main switch, but I'm not quite sure where the other end that has become disconnected? It does not take a male/female bullet connector, as it looks to be it was soldered somewhere before. Does anyone know where and what I should wire this end too?

I hope that makes sense,
Thanks!

 

from ignition switch to connector for meter lights think it is 5 amp

there is a link in the tech forums for free down loads 750 manuals if you do not have one has wiring diagrams
here it is
XJ750 manuals

 

I fixed my problem!

I have a manual and an online color version of the wiring diagram, but what had me tripped up was the wiring portion that had broken was hiding from me...so when I took the entire bucket assembly off for a closer look I finally saw what I had been missing!

Thanks for the help!

 

makes you feel good to fix it on your own doesn't it? good job

 

Man the feeling is addicting. Ride it, break it, repair it, enjoy and do it all over again seems to be the thing!

 

Spend mre time on going through every component to fix all of the potential issues and you'll spend a lot more time riding than fixing.

 

Although sometimes I have tried preventative maintenance only to have it go south. Went to open and clean the turn signal bulb holders even though working fine. Dorked one turnsignal up as the lens cover screws snapped while removing. Had to buy a replacement turn signal. In this case, should have left the sleeping (working) dog lie.

However, safety issues I'm a firm believe in preventative maintenance!

 

Age and corrosion did that, not you. At some point you wold have either had to replace the signal, or drilled the head off of the screw and had a go at extracting the stuck fastener. Imagine that your turn signal burns out while on a trip somewhere. Which is preferable, replacing the bulb, or fighting with a screw that could have been tended to at home?

On a motorcycle, just as on an airplane, everything is a safety item.
