I assume you mean brown/blue (battery negative) as brown is the brake light circuit?
The buzzer is usually on the ohms setting, so do you mean ohms?

good morning I've think someone must have changed the brown/blue because negative the one going to inline fuse is brown, yes ohms remove the battery hold my test meter on red and brown (b b) the buzzer last for a while then fades to silence leave it off for about a minute then touch the wires again and buzzing again take in to account there's no battery fitted but when I connect the battery there's a very minute spark off the battery but then nothing turn ignition on everything works

Yes that's almost certainly the 2MC emergency starting capacitor discharging then recharging when the battery is reconnected so there is often a spark at the battery terminal.

You can do but you may have to join the two (normally brown/blue) wires together or just remove the red wire from the 2MC.
thank you so much for your help, this is my first norton commando (it was the first bike I went on the back of when I was 13 I'm now 68 two day's time.) and I love it.
