I'm installing a new wiring harness on a 96 honda shadow, I turn on the key and test the wires with a test light and everything seems to check out good, BUT, as soon as I plug in a blinker or head

You need to buy a repair manual as not too many people give free electrical schematic. Can try Haynes or Clymers.

is this the one that kick in at a higher rpm to burn more gasses while running at speed? is it not running as it should, are you having an issue other than it doesnt do what you thought it should.No spark in rear cylinder or just on the one plug out of the two? If all is checking out as you said its got to spark.trade the coil thats on one with that other one see if the trouble is the same or moved with the coil to its new location.coil may work but not be good enough to run.

There is usually a kill button on all motorcycles, make sure it is reset. Also make sure you have the gas turned on. Good luck!

Replace the spark plug caps and try again. On Honda's the cap is often part of the wire (a dealer part) NGK makes some inexpensive plug caps about $5 each. They should OHM out to 5000 anything above or below and you need to replace them. This should fix the problem.

SOURCE: 84 honda shadow front running lights replacement:

As the wiring on aftermarket signals is not standardized, you will need to determine which wires are ground, running, and turn respectively. If you can disassemble the signal, the ground will be connected to the outside of the socket, and the other two will be running and turn. If you cannot disassemble the signal, or have access to a multimeter, you can determine which wire is ground by checking continuity between the outer socket and wires. Your stock green wire is the ground, and the orange/white is running light. If when you hook the wires up, your running light is brighter than the turn signal, switch the leads.
Hope this helps.

I installed a factory trailer wiring harness on my 2008 Honda Ridgeline. The tester Shows everything OK at 7 pin outlet. When I hook up trailer the only thing that works is the brakes. When I hook to

There's a few ways to check the trailer lights and wiring. You can check with a volt meter (or test light), at the bulb contact point. Is there 12 volts? If not, work your way down the wire toward the harness plug pins. While your in there, see if the bulb is blown. If on the roadside, or just not near a voltmeter (or test light), see if you can swap wires at the trailer harness plug. Sometimes they disconnect easily. Swap a wire with the brake lights' wire. Do those other lights work when you push the brake pedal?
