which new wiring harness did you order - TT600 or D600? just going back over your thread. the D600 wiring harness is somewhat different from the D650, so i won't be of too much help, but i know for certain that you will have at least 1 connector not used on the harness. the oil pressure sender will not prevent the bike from turning over. not trying to be a jerk, but did you check the simple things like make sure that the kick stand sensor is hooked up and the stand is in the right position? same thing for the clutch lever sensor - hooked up and engaged when you are trying to turn the bike over? how old is your battery and what condition is it in? even if your battery has 12 volts, if it's at the end of life, it won't be enough to turn the bike over and may cause issues with the gauges. finally, have you checked all of your relays? i would make certain that yours are in the right place and are good. by looking at the rear rotor on your donor bike, i see that the daytona sat outside for some time. my 650 donor was the same way and half of the relays were completely rusted inside. you can easily pry the tops off each relay and see how they look inside. hth

The wiring harness from the D600 that came with the donor bike was all frayed and some wires were cut and looked like it had been outside. I tried reconnecting most of the wires, but there were still some frayed and a couple wires that were the same colors. The fuse boxes look coated in some sort of white stuff (not grease, probably just corrosion). I tried cranking it hooked up to jumper cables too, so there's that.

I figure I'll just bypass the whole issue and install a new one and not have to worry about reconnecting wires and troubleshooting the harness itself. I work installing car audio at Best Buy, so I can get relays for next to nothing, I'll just replace them all.

As for the kick stand, I swapped over sensors from the d600 to the TT600, tried it with the stand down, up, in neutral, in gear, clutch in, clutch out, with the tt600 sensor, and pretty much any combination of those.

I'll start all over again when I get the new harness and see how it goes.
