wire location

Post by curragh »

Hi all, just putting the back of the bike together and this wire pictured
has come off. Should it be connected to the battery negative lead? May be someone might know.

I can't see a picture of a wire. But if it's a red and white wire on the left hand It doesn't go anywhere. It's a spare one for something or other, I can't remember What.
Bit of advice. Buy a good bed and a good pair of shoes, because if you aren't in one you'll be in the other.

No it is a black wire on a block connector, it comes out of the main loom at the battery box to a connector and then there is about 9 inches at the other side of the connector.

It's behind you. Oh no it isn't. :lol:

It would help if you could get a photo of it.

In the editor ^ click the image box .....paste the URL.click the image box again.

Your pasted link is then between the two sets of Image brackets.

You may notice that editing AFTER posting is not possible on here....

That looks like the harness/ auxillary earth.

If you not find the other chopped off end I am pretty sure it should have a ring terminal on it and go to the battery negative.
