wiring, get a move on!

Spent an hour looking at wiring the neutral and oil warning lights, so I would get it right. It looked simple, so off I trotted today to the garage sorted wiring for the two idiot lights and did as the diagram showed!... yep life aint that simple! Oil light came on turned the old gal over and it flickered so far so good, no bloody neutral light twhat so ever, yes it was in neutral! The switch for the neutral light is behind the front sprocket cover, which means removing the rear master cylinder releasing the brake pedal and probably the front exhaust damn! Nothing I tried made it come on, so after a cuppa I went back to start the dismantling. fortunately (here's the tip of the day!) after removing the rear master cylinder and brake pedal the three Allen bolts and loosening the exhaust mount nut the cover slipped down sufficient to see the neutral switch, huge sigh of relief! and with the aid of a light and some long nose pliers removed it and fished it out between the gap. checked that the wire wasn't broken. the problem was the neutral switch appears to need its own power supply. Still not convinced but as I had hooked it into the power to the oil light and it didn't work! With its own power works fine! I am not using the OEM wiring loom so perhaps that is why. Still its working and that's another step towards the road!
