Hi,
I have a 1993 K75RT that the previous owner clipped all the leads short when he discarded the front fairing.
I'm a shite electrician and need help ID'ing a pair of leads. They come off the loom along with the leads to the left blinker.
From what I can tell squinting at my Clymer's, the leads (green/blue (G/L), and brown) are part of the bulb monitoring system. They don't seem to show any voltage when the ignition is on.
I'm going to run aftermarket lights, so do I need to do something with the mystery leads?
Cheers
Jim

As far as I know, the K75RT only has two horns, two turn signals, a head light and parking light in the fairing. If your headlight, parking light and turn signals work, the remaining wires probably go to a horn that may have been removed by the previous owner.

Here's the Clymer wiring for the BMU. It has no green/blue wires.

On a stock K75:
Green/blue wires come from the load shed relay and provide lighting power to the right combination switch (headlight/parking light switch) and left combination switch(flash to pass) as well as power to the #7 fuse. The #7 fuse sends power to the following via green/brown wires:
Flasher relay
Alarm connector
Horn relay
Thermo relay (for radiator fan)
There is no green/blue wire that goes directly to any of the lights. (or horn)
All brown wires are ground.

Here are schematic color renditions from Clymer for 1990 and on. You might be looking at the flasher unit because it is depicted in the unit's diagram below as having a G/B wire. The turn signals aren't part of the bulb monitoring scheme.

Bingo! Looking at the somewhat faded wires, my mystery lead has the same colours as the known horn lead, G/GR, not light blue as I thought at first.
Voltmeter confirms voltage when horn button is activated.
One confusing thing is the remaining horn was mounted on the frame, near the radiator on the right side. I didn't realize that there should have been two horns. Another PO kluge, evidently.
Thanks for the help.

You're welcome! Glad you got it figured out.

Any link to the schematic in colour? My Clymer is black and white.
Thanks

Downloaded a copy. Many thanks! It will be a valuable document during the project.
