On my project PX Im looking to simplify the wiring so am using a Axle Joost B-Box (MotoGadget style brain).
To keep things simple I elected to buy a 2-wire PX Ignition Barrel - all it has to do it give signal to trhe brain to turn on, but when I put a multimeter across the wires it says in the ON position there is not circuit connection - What The? emoticon . How does this thing work?! Does the four wire version of the ignition work differently?

Two wire lock…

Four wire lock…
Green - Black same as above.

Cheers for that AsFiS

I think I need to go back to buy a four wire barrel Facepalm emoticon
Oh well it's just money right..
Kind of a shame as if it closed the circuit ON it would have been perfect for the B-Box install
