No I have a wiring diagram, several actually, I wanted to try and circumvent the 3 switch to use a different device for each position.
I ended up buying another Police switch, completely pulled it apart and worked out it couldn't be done. Have a step by step guide, however it's way to big to post.
Finally I did some more research and using a closed relay I can achieve the desired outcome. Haven't implemented it yet, it's on my list.
First thing however is to use the same type of relay to turn off the headlight when the side stand is down utilising the dashboard light.

Thats exactly what the sidestand mod does for the HID brigade, though its a bit more complex to do it for normal headlights, as the bike will need to be stripped down to get at the wiring. A lot of work for a minor result

I could have told you the 3 switch wouldn't work for that, I have all the wiring color codes for all police switches, guess I should post them.

Hi Yorkie,
Yes please, and if you have any further info on the specialized aux relays and associated wiring that the P models have for the extras that are used, in service as I still have to work all that stuff out.
Cheers Winston66.

The relays are shown in the simplified wiring diagram.

Assuming he intended to still use the switch block, he's a brave man to disassemble it to its components like that.  At least he left himself good clear instructions to reverse the process.  (Good luck with the springs and ball bearings  :grin )

Although, thinking about it, Brock probably tinkers with fiddly stuff like that for a living.
