Auxiliary Power Socket

[Blackthou]

I've read the threads re installing the above and spent a long time looking for the 2 taped wires mentioned. I found 4 - 2 pairs but neither pair are long enough to reachthe intermediate panel where the socket mounts. I know i could extend them but it's not been mentioned in other posts?
Does anyone else have 2 pairs and if so does it matter which one?

You are looking in wrong area. The lead for the auxiliary socket is buried down low. It is a T shaped connector with blue tape on it. You need to remove the small panel between the engine and frame to find it.

Hi,
I've looked under the small panel thorughly 3 times and unless the wire is welll hidden, have pulled and followed evry wire I could see, hence trying the other side panel. When I found 2 wires taped up I thought great and then found 2 more. Obviously none of which are correct. Any chance of a pictureof the T shaped connector?

The wire is well hidden. I had to really dig for it. Try this:

picture was Here is a picture of connector - didn't realize it was cropped so tight. Even when you get here the wires are buried in middle of bike, you will have to move others out of way to get to it. Look for blue painters tape on it.

If I remember correctly, it's a white connector bent over and taped with blue tape to other wires. But then again that was on a R3T, good luck

I just ran two wires from the battery and installed an in line fuse and a waterproof socket into the RHS side panel on the R3T simple!

Thanks guys. Thought I recognised the plug for a moment but alas, no

Not those. I think mine was on a metal strap bracket affair that sits under the plastic cover.
The strap thingy needs to be unbolted and slid out.
