wiring schematic symbol question

I am doing some wiring and ran into a symbol I can't find anywhere....can anyone tell me what it is...? It looks like a diode (triangle) but at the point it has a rectangle.....the fat end of the triangle goes to ground (battery neg actually)

 

Speaker?

 

ignition system

 

Pick up a Ugly's book from home depot. (You don't have to buy it, just look through and put back.)

 

Thanks..but since there are electrical engineers on here I figured it's a good place to ask!

 

varicap?

not on there....maybe a varicap

 

K13, the speaker symbol looks like a rectangle with a cone on one side and a wire vertically through the rectangle

 

I'm trying to figure out how to copy the pic from my service manual I have saved....It's not cutting off the point and definately not a cigarette lighter...but I think I need it to get the ignition working.

 

Either speaker, or microphone. I'm pretty sure.

 

It looks like this....

 

The triangle points to the flow path, and the box is the diode ?

 

Isn't that just special. I believe it is the altenator/regulator ground (rectified diode), why it is shown like that is a mystery - do you have LED turnsignals? Something along that line?

How about MSD ignition? If you have msd with a 6al box then you need a diode in the altenator circuit - maybe that is an optional circuit for when you use MSD or some other similar type ignition system where it is on a keyed ignition switch.

Then again, i am just guessing.

 

What does the other end go to? With one end grounded it could be some kind of a voltage regulating diode (zener diode).

 

well it is a ground for electronic ignition and a bunch of other stuff. Whats a rectified diode do?

 

ITS GOT A SIDE STAND SWITCH, why didn't you say you had a MOTORCYCLE

 

I notice there's a matching symbol at the power side of the neutral switch. I had actually originally thought it was a symbol for a horn/siren, but that doesn't seem to be the case after reviewing your schematic.

Shhh I was hoping to find out what the symbol is before it got out and shut this thread down!!! It is still 12v wiring !!

 

Also on the ignition switch, wanna bet its a wire connector

 

Hmmm..that makes the most sense so far! I'll bet that's it...I am working with a butchered wiring system to wire it from scratch..Thank you.

 

A rectified diode regulates the astral pulses in the flux capacitor.

 

Heh, it's just a fancy way of saying "diode used to rectify"... or more commonly, convert AC into DC.

 

you have another one on # 2... and # 8.......believe it is a symbol for a single snap together wire connector........

 

Yea I think so to now!! Thanks for the help everyone.

 

bullet connector ?

 

We have a winner! It is a single conductor connector. Way to go shelby1 and treble11.
