Looks right to me

Well, last night was a short night, given some work stuff that's occupying my brain as well as my after-hour hours. Still, some progress made I suppose. Difficult to tell at the end of it all if it will make a difference, but I did feel better, or more knowledgeable. Perhaps.

Studied up quite a bit yesterday on the whys of the wiring. Or maybe better said, how and what this part is and that part is. It's a little bit funny that I'm building a motorcycle and have to google 'starter solenoid. Since I know this bike has one and I hear of it referenced in various sites and manuals, but didn't really know where it was or what it looked like.

Not really that funny... but I try to laugh at many things in life, and I'm perhaps unusually talented at laughing at myself most times.

So now that I know what this part is and that part is (or sometimes was) I can at least better understand the workings. A little bit. I still sort of end up, at least for now, with this 'still don't know why it's not working since everything is where I think it should be' part. Such is the life of a pseudo mechanic.

Last night was a little bit more of putting things where they will eventually need to be, routing these mysterious collections of wires and connectors to their final resting places, and leaving the actual performing part for later. It's a step that would have to happen irregardless of if I got the bike to start or not anyway, since I cant very likely ride down the street with a wiring harness strewn over the side. Not far, anyway.

This step, of course, is something more of a 'this will go there later ' so I will need _____ to move it there, and make a list of certain things to get these items UHaul'd to their new locations. Mostly longer wires and some additional couplings and connectors. Very romantic shopping, there.

Next, after work tonight it's find an auto parts store or electronics store or maybe a bar, collect my goods and carry on. Maybe with getting things where they belong, this world will become a little bit clearer.

Maybe.

I'd settle for starting at this point.
