Lucas light help

[Hondahawkrider]

Well that was fun

NOT

Ok on the 2013 is black/brown wire on the cb to black Lucas wire and blue/green wire on the cb to the red Lucas wire.

The Lucas metal mount was not enough to ground the light - nada no tailight

However, if you add an wire and take it from the green wire to the Lucas light, I get tail lights :-)

The rub is that it can't just be touching the mounting bracket.. it only works if you are touching the metal bolts on the Lucas light.. the bolts that hold the plastic light in work, but are exposed too much .. howver as I used stainless bolts to mount the Lucas, those work too.. So it's another run to Home Depot to get a round electrical connector, which I will sandwich between some metal washers with rubber ones on the outside.

Weeeeeeeeeee

As you mentioned; the attachment points on the Lucas housing is the ground.
You could connect the Green, CB1100 wire to the Lucas housing.

Thanks - I figured out the wires just as this came in

I appreciate the assist

The green ground from the cb must be routed to the Lucas light, but it has to be to metal i.e. A bolt, the frame of the Lucas light isn't enough...

I'll post up pics when I am done
