    IMG_1017.JPG Switch wasn't working but if you wiggled the wires the turn light would come on so I took it appart and found the problem.... Can anyone tell me where this brown wire is supposed to go? I'm guessing the arrow on the right but not 100% sure.
    Thanks!

    Sorry, problem solved, there's also a brown/white wire that's off too. Judging by the lengths the brown/white goes center and the solid brown goes on the right.

    Is there another wire hiding in there? Brown should be common and go to the center terminal on the switch. Dark Green for right and Chocolate for left. So three wires required for the switch.

    Yea there was Rooster, a brown and white one going to center. Gotter soldered back together and shes working good now. Little dielectric grease really helped smooth out the switch too :). Really liking working on this thing, can't wait to mod it a bit and make it look as nice as some of the other ones on here!
