My '86 trike has rear lights on the mudguards, as well as forward facing marker lights. It also has what we over here call a sidelight in the headlight bowl. Mine wasn't working, so I checked it out. It wasn't connected, so I consulted my Haynes manual. Blue and black should be the ones. It worked on drive, but in park all I had was the rear lights. No doubt about it, according to the manual it should work on park and drive.(3 wire ignition switch). I checked all the versions I have.
So I took a knife to the loom, lo, the blue was connected to the red and yellow core...
Why? Who knows. So I cut the blue off the red/yellow and connected it to the blue. Success.
