tomtomrider pro

Hi
got a tt rider pro,trying to fit it to an F800GS.Tried wiring direct to the battery via inline fuse but it flattened the battery over a couple of days(the unit was actually removed,i'm guessing the mount draws current even when the unit is removed)
i have now decided to run it via the din accessory connector.Does any one now if the accessory plug is switched via the ignition .And does anyone where i can get a water resistant din plug (in the uk)to wire onto the tt power lead.

Hi,

There is a canbus socket on the 800gs, (on the right side (facing front) somewhere near the horn I think). Much easier to connect your satnav to that as it is operated by the ignition.

This is for the 1200 but its basically the same. Most dealers have the connector.

Good luck.

There is a spare auxiliary canbus socket next to the battery, under the dummy tank cover, This socket is switched by the ignition and you can buy a male plug wth flying leads, from your local Motorrad dealer for about £8
