'73 GS ignition lights (oil light/lhm light) not going off after turning key off and removing it from ignition (flattened battery overnight). Points/gap all good - thought may have been burnt out
If I had an ignition relay to track down would eliminate that as an issue, but from all my exploring nil to be found
Had dig around in dash & noticed a prior ignition bung (has about 7 pins). The current ignition has 4 screw connectors at the back (cleaned 'em up). Barrel was bit loose in houseing; tightened it up. Key was little sloppy; squirted electrical cleaner and clicks through all positions now
Cleaned obvious earth connections. Have disconnected earth while sorting this all out
It starts fine, runs but when you turn the key off no oil light, then after a few seconds it comes on (like a trip happening/not happening somewhere)
Noticed driving the other day, revs were fluctuating a bit on idle (research suggests that could be ignition relay - none to be found; even GS electrical schematic I consulted)
I'm thinking ignition barrel?
