I hate admitting this but I am.just about ready to throw in the towel on my bike..I bought a.78 xs400e and it was mostly something to mess around with. I am no wiring guru or any of that. But my specialty is metalwork so doing the wiring is not my.fortay. I am kickstart only and I only have.a headlight.and taillight.the factory.plugs were cutoff by previous.owner. bike will run but.its.not charging. I thought.it.was the regulator so I bought one.off amazon. Wired it in and nothing. My buddy who knows.some about.wiring jumped the green wire for a second. Cooked it. Thought it was stator so I bought a new one off ebay with field.coil. still nothing. I know this that all the whites go together.same with the green. The yellow wire gets capped off. The light blue is neutral. Light( capped off not.using.it) red goes.to my.ignition toggle.switch (no key have.a.hidden switch) . Not really sure what im.asking but.for the love.of.god.can someone.help.me in some way. Ive.spent 3 years building this bike by hand and getting. Pissed that.the.hardest part.about.it.is.the wiring which.I jave.no idea why because..literally running the bare mini. Just.to be street.legal. thank you
