998 wiring woes

dunlop0_1 · 08-Aug-2014, 19:23

Right. I fitted the 998 loom to the bike no problem apart from......... The kill switch/starter does not work. Flick the switch (replaced key ignition) and everything comes on, oil light, fuel pump, relays but the kill switch and starter button are not in the loop, in fact I can disconnect the main round plug for the front harness with no effect? Also there is a small 2 pin white plug next to the relays which I have no idea what it is for.

I hate electrics help please

Just had a thought.

Are the 998 ignition relays specific?

dunlop0_1 · 09-Aug-2014, 10:25

Not the relays.

So the pump primes, manually bridge solenoid to turn over and you get one spark and no fuel

Also does not matter if the side stand switch is bridged or not

Sorted.

Turns out that the 998 pump primes on the key and Ducati in there wisdom changed one wire in the front harness.

Got to love my drawings though LOL. Feckin hate wiring.

Dont you know talking to yourself is the first sign of madness? Glad you got it sorted, that looked like a nightmare.

Yep all sorted no thanks. To be honest it was an archive post from 10 years ago on DSC that helped me out.
