CAN ANY ONE HELP ME WITH THE ELECTRICS ON MY BSA 31 A DRAWING WILL DO SHOWING THE IGNITION SYSTEM

[L.A.B.]

As your B31 is a 1946 model I would expect it to have a magdyno (magneto and dynamo in one unit)?

The magneto part of the magdyno supplies the ignition sparks, and works independently of, and is not connected to the electrical system (but the dynamo part should be).

Thank you that made it a bit cleare but a drawing would help alot as most of the wirers have been choped or the insulation has rotted away.

thanks

I suggest that you get a copy of the workshop manual, as that is likely to contain a wiring diagram (as well as other information you may find useful?).
