You need to get a service manual which will have a wiring diagram in it, and you need to use a test light to check wih the diagram that the electricity is getting through the wires to the places it's meant to be going. There's every chance that there is a broken wire or a bad connection in the wiring, and not some electrical component. Wires mostly break right where they go into the metal terminal on the end of the wire, and they often break inside the insulation with no visible evidence, but if you wriggle the wire gently it will feel too floppy because there's nothing but plastic holding it. The other problem they can get is dirty connection where the wire's crimped into the metal terminal. Some wiring looms also have wires joined internally, inside the taped up loom, and some of those connections are crimped and can get bad connections. Those you just have to deduce are bad connections by noticing there is power on one side of the connection and not the other side. Connections in wires are shown as a black dot where the wires cross in the diagram. Wires that cross without a dot aren't connected. You need to start by checking the earth wires are connected and making contact, then start at the battery and follow the wiring diagram to the switch and reg etc checking there is power as there should be. Use a test light because highly sensitive electrical gauges can deceive you. If you have any trouble reading the wiring diagram let us know and I'll explain it to you.

Yeah and they are hardened and those ridges start new off being quite abrasive. Wood everyone.. If it gets stuck in the jet it only needs a bit of a charing and it will come out again.. no harm done. And it gets them cleaner than any bit of wire will..

Thats bad! No engine number either.
