Hello. New here my thanks in advance. Restoring a 78 xs750 e basket case i picked up for $100,all in things were going well,rough,but well. Finaly got 90% of the electric sorted,got my signals correct for the most part,put the headlamp back in,turn the key(not running) playin around w switches,goin well,turn on the lights from the right bar control,bang,EVERYTHING dies,no l8ghts at all,no pilot box,no starter,NOTHIN.
