Wiring at Clutch Lever

[Patrick78]

I swapped my stock Vmax clutch master and lever for one from a FJR1300 so I could have the adjustability of the lever.

So the switch on the FJ has three prones, but when I looked at the wiring diagram is only showns the same two wires that the Vmax has. Blue and Black. I tried sticking those wires on the switch in several different variations but still nothing when I try to start the bike.

I opened the switch and it looks like all 3 prongs should be used as when the spring slides over as you depress the lever the middle prong does come into play.

I don't have the Vmax switch in hand at the moment so I can't compare.

Does anyone have any advice on this?

Thanks
Patrick

Was the side stand up?

No it was down. I was just about to update with that genius information. I installed the FJR master several years ago and I've been just starting the bike in neutral for so long I forgot about the involvement of the side stand in the equation.

Thanks.

Three prongs on the fjr switch.
Common
Normally closed
Normally open

Use a multimeter to test your switch. With the lever pulled, you should read continuity between the common and NO contact. I believe the middle terminal will be unused in your setup. Its been awhile so don't quote me on that.
