Yamaha XJ600 Diversion CDI Wiring…..

We have had a few enquiries and questions about the wires that connect the CDI to the electrical wiring loom on the XJ600 Diversion.

The pictures and info in this below should show where the different coloured wires connect to the CDI unit.

The info and pictures are from a 1998 Yamaha XJ600 S Diversion (half faired – 4BRE model) and should be the same on the XJ600 N Diversion (naked model).
Other years may be different though!

There are 10 different coloured wires going into the cdi (there’s 2 black and 2 of the red/white wires, so there’s 12 wires going into the CDI in total):

• Grey
• Red/white (2 x 1 red wire with white stripe, 1 white wire with a red stripe)
• Light blue
• Yellow/black
• Dark blue
• Yellow
• Orange with a dashed, black line
• Black (2 x 1 thinner wire, 1 thicker wire)
• Dark blue/red
• White/green

The image below shows how the wires are laid out in the plug (if you were looking down on the plug when it was connected to the CDI):
