Incidentially, does anyone know how many pins my CDI unit should have? I have the part code MWO so should be a 94 item but bould like to check.

I read your other post, but couldn't help you as I don't know the later Blade looms, but luckily Andy did, but as a thought to your general problem solving, have you considered getting an earlier Blade loom (at least for testing of your systems). You should be able to get one for around £50, but if you really haven't got the money in your KC budget then thats fair enough, but my fear (if I was you) would be that one problem leads onto another.

Which might end up costing you money.

If I were you I would buy a correct loom even if you are skint - get yours working/check all systems - and then sell it again. That way for the sake of a little lost profit or postage (say £10 or so) you could of solved all your problems and checked things like extra wires in plugs and so on...

Please don't think I'm having a go - I hope it doesn't sound like that - I was just trying to see things and offer a more lateral way off thinking!

Cheers,
Steve

I was thinking about that, but there doesn't seem to be anymore looms of that year about at the moment. I was just a bit concerned about Andy's comment on how there shouldn't be the pins in the CDI unit for extra wires, when mine has all 16 pins (MWO - '94 part code). Thank you for the advice, didn't think you were having a go at all. Any information/suggestions are welcome in times of need.

I'll try and find out about a spare loom for you and send you a U2U if I have any luck.

It's a RRR model isn't it?

ETA - the first avenue I tried was no luck, but I'll find out tomorrow about the other...

You're a star. That would be invaluable. It's just the number of pins on the CDI that's confusing me now.

Hi have just taken some piccies of my 92 RRN fireblade cdi for you will post them in my photo archive for ya

cheers

As you can see in my pics in archive the plug only has 8 or 9 wires actually being used BUT the cdi unit has all the pins present, ps mine is the early twin headlamp model 893cc, if you need any more info i also have a haynes manual if you want any info

cheers colin

Thanks for that Colin. That's sorted that worry. Your CDI has a very close part code to mine too so I should be able to rely on that. Thank you for your time and help, I owe you a pint.
