question for the people with newer banshees...

[nunyabinness]

ok as some of you know i am building my first banshee out of spare parts... well, i put the wiring harness on and i have everything figured out as to which wires go where (yes i have a clymer manual 88-95). everything is good until i got to the cdi. my cdi has 2 plugs on it (a white plug and a black plug). well the wiring harness has 2 plugs as well (both white plugs)... the one plugs directly into the white plug on the cdi, the other one which should plug into the black plug is a 5 wire plug... all of the wire colors match up except the five wire plug has a green wire that my cdi doesn't have.

 

now here's my question...

 

what does the green wire go to? i'm thinking that maybe it has something to do with the brake light???

 

i'm thinking that i have a wiring harness that is either newer than my cdi or i am missing a piece to my wiring harness that goes from the 5 wire plug to a four wire plug and that green wire must go some where other than the cdi.

one set of wires should be to the stator the other is lighting, coil, and tors.

does this wire have a tracer color? a green wire with a yellow tracer is for the tors. it cuts spark when grounded.

 

In the back of the Clymers it has diagrams. unless after market.

[nunyabinness]

yes it is a green wire with a yellow stripe.

yes it is a green wire with a yellow stripe.

 

it is a T.O.R.S. wire. I cut it out of mine.

[nunyabinness]

so i can just get rid of all of the tors stuff? cool. and as for the rest of the wires should i just cut the plugs off and put on quick disconnects? since the plugs don't connect to each other?
