Need a wiring diagram for 6 way starter switch

You needn't worry about a six way Kill Button... I used one myself to replace the OEM one. Buy yourself a cheap electrical multimeter for around $12 and test the switch for continuity (the meter set to Ohms or Resistance) with the switch in different positions using the different poles without installing it. You will then know which position is RUN (I) when the meter responds.... turn the switch in the other direction and it should have an OPEN (O); i.e., the meter doesn't move, which indicates the engine Kill Switch by grounding the spark from the magneto or reluctor coil. A multimeter is a cheap tool to have in your arsenal around the home and shop.

Does the blackbird cbr1100 1999 model have a kill button and if so were is the kill button located ????

All motorcycles have a " Kill/engine stop switch ". They have to by law. Usually it's right next to the starter button on the right side handlebar switches. Usually it's the button to the left of the start.

Replace Kill Switch 1150 GS

The kill switch on a BMW R1150GS motorcycle is designed to immediately shut off the engine in case of an emergency or accident. If you need to replace the kill switch on your R1150GS, you can follow these general steps:
  1. Disconnect the battery to avoid any electrical hazards.
  2. Remove the handlebar grip on the side where the kill switch is located. You can do this by loosening the screws that hold it in place and gently pulling it off.
  3. Locate the kill switch module on the handlebar and disconnect the wiring harness from the switch. Depending on the year and model of your R1150GS, you may need to remove the switch from the module by using a screwdriver or Allen wrench to remove any screws or bolts that hold it in place.
  4. Install the new kill switch by reversing the steps used to remove the old one. Connect the wiring harness to the switch and secure the switch to the handlebar or switch module using screws or bolts.
  5. Test the new kill switch to make sure it works properly by reconnecting the battery and starting the engine.
It is important to note that these steps may vary depending on the specific year and model of your R1150GS. If you are unsure about how to replace the kill switch or are not comfortable doing so yourself, it is recommended that you take your motorcycle to a professional mechanic or BMW dealership for assistance.

Autopage alarm wont let my vehicle start

Is this a new installation? Is this a remote starter?
If you have an alarm with a starter inhibit installed and, after disarming the system the car doesn't start, there are several steps to take to ascertain the problem.
Begin by using a voltmeter or, low voltage testlight and test the starter wire at the ignition switch. Turn the key to start and test for voltage. If you do not have 12 volts on the starter wire at the ignition switch when turning the key to start, you either have no power (battery or fuse) in the vehicle or, your ignition switch is bad.
If you have 12 volts at the switch, move your test light to the other side of the starter kill and test for 12 volts. If there is no starter kill, move your tester to the starter relay under the hood. If there is no power coming from the relay, you have found your problem. If you have power coming from the relay to the starter then test the starter when turning the key. If you have power at the starter when turning the key you have found you problem. If you have no power going to the starter when turning the key then there is break in the line.
