Hi I wonder can any one help?The two lights one green one orange maybe the problem.When my indicators are on the green ones flash and the orange ones don't light at all.I also have no speedo illumination or main beam indicator.I tried earthing the speedo today but it just seems to earth out causing the bike to nearly cut out.Should the indicators flash the orange warning lights not the green?Is the green the main beam indicator?The scoot is a 1982 P200 and had a new wiring harness a couple of years ago.It normally does not bother me as I normally ride during the day but now the nights are pulling in its irritating .Many thanks Al.

Off the top of my head...
Orange for indicators, green for main beam. Run a wire in parallel to the one from the switch to the idiot light, and then to earth. The indicator idiot light is a little more complicated, it runs from the back of the switch to the idiot light and then back to the 'in' side of the relay IIRC.
Think that's right... It's been a while.

My standard electrics PX 200 runs a green flashing light for indicators, blue for headlight main beam and orange for low fuel level light (as well as the visual gauge) but this is on a yr 2001 scooter so may not apply to yours.

That's an EFL with lights in the speedo, the Mk1 has the two above the speedo.

Thanks for the replies.i managed to get the speedo light to work.for some reason the yellow wire had been connected to earth by mistake making the clocks live at all time.Just can't get the main beam indicator to work.Cheers Al.

Run from the switch to the headlamp, then run a parallel wire back to the idiot light, and earth it
