Colleagues,



Our friend Scalyback did that brilliant wiring diagram for the 2011 Bullet a few months ago.



To complement the wiring diagram I've done a series of circuit diagrams. In case you don't know the difference: the wiring diagram shows how the components are wired together; the circuit diagram shows how the circuits behave electrically, with no effort to show how the circuit is actually wired up.



If you want to fault-find, the circuit diagrams are invaluable, because they are SO much easier to follow than the wiring diagrams. In reality, you don't use the circuit diagrams on their own - you always use them in conjunction with the wiring diagram. The two are complementary.



It will all become clearer if I show you an example:

This is Scaly's original diagram, but with each connector given an identifier (two letters, AA - BH) - Bullet Wiring Diagram



This is the same diagram, but with a key to help you find where a given connector is - Bullet Wiring Diagram showing connectors



This is an example diagram, showing the horn, neutral light and low fuel light circuits, including the connectors in each circuit - Bullet Circuit Diagram



Questions: Is this work likely to be of any use to anyone in this community? What is the best way of sharing these files, and making them permanently available (the same goes for Scaly's diagram)?

Thack there is no place on the forum to store this stuff,it just disappears into the never never. My thoughts would be to email our hosts and see if they would be prepared to put it in the technical notes, then it will be stored for anybody to see

we used to call that 'cat's cradle'





could be an idea to email them, there's a nice lamp guide too

Thanks for the comments, guys.



So, the plan is to make ONE PDF file available, with a circuit diagram on each page. On the first page will be Scaly's diagram (I hope he's agreeable), so you will have the wiring diagram and the circuit diagrams all in one PDF document.



It should all be finished this weekend - can't do it before then as I've got some college assignments to do.
