Colours - Wiring

Morning gents.

I bought a set of turn signals of ebay (US) and I'm in the process of fitting them. Question is, the wiring on the bike is one white and one black wire, the turn signals have one orange and one green. Can anyone tell me which coloured wires go where.

Cheers

Ross.

How odd! Not a real problem, though: plug 'em in one way & try the blinkers. Leave 'em like that if they work, swap if they don't.

Also, can't remember if it was like this on my T309, but my T695 has one wire longer than the other on each piece, so the longer wire on the turn signal plugs into the shorter wire on the harness.

Cheers,
-Kit

doesnt matter which way round they go if they are regular type bulbs, but if they are L.E.D.'s, they will only work one way round, so fit them, and if they work, thats cool, if they dont, swap the wires round.(if they still dont work, check the bulb!)
