A friend of mine (and club member) has recently bought a part finished Mk3 commando project, he's got most of the bike assembled but is having difficulties sorting out the wiring, which is about all thats left to do. It has a new loom already fitted but he is having difficulty working out which bits go where, how they connect and what connectors it should have. Is there anyone in Devon ( Hes near Dawlish) that either anyone can recommend he can take the bike to, or better still a Commando savy member that would be prepared to give him a hand and at least point him in the right direction!
Cheers

Start with the wiring diagram...

The wiring diagram will have all the correct colours which should tie up with the loom hence connecting up will be straight forward. If you have moved any electrical items or changed any items then there is scope for confusion.
If the ignition system is changed to Electronic (which it should be) then condensers and ballast resistors are no longer needed.
If the Zener diodes are lost or considered unusable then the 'odd' original rectifier fitted to the MKIII and Zeners will be replaced by a regulator/rectifier.
IF the new loom isn't in line with the wiring diagram then of course the new loom is 'not fit for purpose'.
