Key Switch removal
#21
I would love to have my bike Keyless but I am sure I would keep finding myself ariveing at work without keys to open the door. But what I do want to do is pull the ignition and have it rekeyed so both bikes are the same key.
Its on the list of things to do...................Someday

Mine.
I have an idea what will work, but vito looks like he has a lot more going on in the pic he posted, maybe I'm missing something.
I am actually going to PM you what I'm thinking it should look like, instead of broadcasting how to hot wire a KLX to the world.
Ziplock bag-o-beer in the mail for either of you,,,,,,, or better yet, Neil stop by here and we can both head up to redpillar's

I'm still stuck
I'm not sure which wires are being connected by the switch in the on and off positions.
If you could draw in the connections made in the on and off positions I may understand better. I think if I tear apart the ignition switch I would understand but I'd rather not tear into it, unless I have to
.
OK maybe I get it , is the switch your using a double pole double throw?
Connecting like this? Red is the switch connections being made in on or off position.

(I plan on removing these images once I get it sorted out.)

LOL I think I'm stumbling closer to an understanding. So far, I think Neils wiring is the only one that is the same as mine. I'd like to see exactly how he did his. Curious to see if he can hold my hand and explain how he set his up with only a single pole single throw switch. I'm not sure but I think the red wires are for the lights. I'm wondering if I can set mine up with two spst switches. One for the ignition and one for the lights. I would like to have the option of running the bike with the lights off.

No need to worry about them if you don't need/want park lights.
Thats what I did.
If you do want park lights, what about a double pole, double throw switch with a centre off? Or, a double pole triple throw switch.
Carry on.

The lighting circuit wired to the ignition switch is only the park lights.

Good stuff! I am waiting for the mailman to deliver the HDB Handguards and bars etc to come so that I can start putting everything back together. I am looking forward to redesigning the wind screen and dashboard. I will stick some heated grips on as well.
