Wiring loom connector plug question.

[2vornot2v]

Anyone here know if there was an factory intended use for the vacant blue wiring loom connector that can be found at the right side rear of the frame on later model Airheads. It's the one that is usually sealed off by a black blank cap.?????

 

[Rob Farmer]

Nope! Haven't a clue what you mean. On which bike?

 

[2vornot2v]

It's the connector at the right side rear of the frame spine and aft of the open rectangle bracket where the relays are mounted. I've never seen anything in that plug and it is usually blanked by a black plastic cap. Presumably it is on the GS models and most certainly on the mono road bikes.

 

[Rob Farmer]

Just had a look at both my paralevers but neither have them. It could be the solenoid connections for certain markets.

its for special equipment add ons hence why its blanked

 

[2vornot2v]

Yes but what special equipment did the factory have in mind??? I found an image of said connector. See below. Sorry about the small pic but it's all I had.

Why not find a wiring chart & find out yourself based on wiring colour leading into the plug?

on an R80 ST it was the control circuit for the extra lights system that you could buy for them

One light came on with Dip beam and would extinguish and the other would come on with full beam and vice versa

its adaptation using this loom (I can;t find the correct diagram with the plug in loom I have fitted one of these on an R80ST ) and set up LINKY
