New Generation Ignition Switch Wire Color Mappings...

[CaptainCaeruleus]

For those who have suffered the infamous ignition switch failure and decided to do the repair yourself, be advised that the plug and wire color mappings have changed with the new generation switch. Although the new switch comes with an adapter plug, you still need to know the color mappings between the old and new ignition switches as you have to splice into the plug and wire harness from the old switch:


Old Switch: New Switch:
white/green --> orange/green
brown --> blue/yellow
red--> orange/red
lack/white--> orange
blue--> red/blue
yellow--> green
white--> white/blue


The diagram looks something like this:



New switch -------> adapter plug w/new wire colors ------->|splice new/old wires|------>plug w/old color wires cut from old ignition switch ------> plug to Triumph wire harness
