ZX10 wiring
BobM - 23/8/10 at 02:09 PM

Anyone know how to simulate the tip-over switch on the ZX10 (2007 motor)? I could always fix the actual switch to the car but neater to use a resistor if possible.

yeah, i will post info shortley, i havent actualy done it but its on my to do list (currently re-wiring the whole lot) its something like 3k Ohms and 13 K ohms in a voltage divider

it also looks like it will still work ip you pop it open, remove the disk from the inside and it should work any way up.

The small switch looks quite neat IMHO

i wish the wiring was that simple! thats the old carbed version, the 06/07 is dfi and has tons of extra bits to worry about.

Ye olde ZX10 really is quite simple, isn't it ?

I have the original owners manual for 04/05 and 06/07 on cd if you need a copy, they have good in depth wiring diagrams on there and tell you how to use the clocks on board diagnostics.

Thanks for that - I have the workshop manual with that info in it, I hadn't realised it gives the specs of the voltage output for the switch - it's all in the FI section and I was looking in the electrical bit. Turns out the ECU's looking for 0.65-1.35V on the yellow/green wire.

I'm presuming I can't access the on-board diagnostics without the clocks (which I don't have)?

No mate, the clocks read a sereies of pulses, which you count out to give you a fault code, but i'm sure someone will have come up with a locost solution to reading the codes without the clocks, check out zx10r.net there may be more info on there for you.
