Default Updated: 2013 XC300, Help Turning The Lights Back On

Help!

I started undoing electrical tape on my XC to fix a broken wire on my e-start, and have opened Pandora?s Box! FYI, E-start is all good... now to fix the lights!

What voltage should be coming into the light switch on the yellow wire? Is it DC or AC? I see one leg of the yellow comes from inside the stator / gen cover. The other yellow conductor that feeds the yellow leg of the light switch (3-way splice) comes from the regulator. I?m reading .1VDC or 1VAC while checking the yellow with the bike running and revving.

I get 12VDC at the brake light. The starter relay seems good, the two fuses are good and the bike will kick start without a battery (key on tho). It also sends charge voltage to the battery leads too (no batt connected for that test).

Help! What voltage should I see on yellow, and where to look next?!?

Thanks!
