In the picture you can see 3 wires which go nowhere. These must be for the idiot lights as I only have an analogue speedo.
Why "Must" they?
Chances are they're for indicators. It's not like it's a genuine Suzuki plug and as indicators get swapped, the previous owner may have used that chockblock
If you're adamant on finding a feed for a light it'll have to be tank off, strip back the loom and trace manually from the neutral switch. The switch itself (from memory is usually the earthing point. That way you wouldn't ever have a constant live shorting out, if there was an issue with the switch). Old school bikes just had 1 wire going to neutral switch.
With a bike with side stand and clutch switches these will all go to a relay or into the ecu via the neutral light circuit. Some dr models had position sensors to retard or advance the ignition depending on what gears selected.
I'm guessing if it really was as easy as plugging a bulb into a loom and it all working then this post wouldn't have been needed or at least someone out there would have been able to advise and give a straight answer.
Is this defiantly the drz400e model. If so I thought that was the enduro model and as such didn't come with all this gubbins. It's likely if it's an e model then an aftermarket lighting loom has been piggy backed onto the basic loom of the bike.
Put it all back together and go out for a ride.
There's 1000s of these bikes out there and if the Internet and the forums have drawn blanks then it safe to say it's not doable.
