Ok, I know this has been covered several times, but where are those aux cables on the left hand side of the bike?
I've been looking in all the rubber boots etc but can't find them. Am I barking up the wrong tree, are they only on the pre 2010 model?
If there's none there then I'll just take it from somewhere else.
Thanks all,
Mark
L/H side forward of the glove box, black flexible plastic boot protecting a mass of wire joints, there are 2 free wires in there, forgotten the colour.....
If you feel up in the left fairing in front of the storage box, you will see/feel a large rubber boot that covers a couple of multi block connectors and the auxillary bullet connectors.You can fold the rubber boot back like a glove cuff to make it easier.
The auxillary leads are quite short, but they are there.
Easiest way to access them if you are struggling is to remove the storage box.
1/ Remove two push pin connectors at top of storage box and the allen headed screw at bottom of box interior
2/ Juggle box upwards, you may need to partially close the lid to get the mechanism through the opening
3/ Disconnect electrical connector to mechanism
Refitting is the opposite, but you WILL have to jiggle the box to get it to sit flat with fairing surround !!
Nice one thanks..... Off to investigate!
Don't forget there are two in the back as well, under the ECU.
Found them, thanks everyone.
Isn't fairing a pain in the :asshole: to get off and back on :hammer:
Oh yes :)

It's dead easy. :popcorn:
I don't have much trouble with mine. I've taken it on and off so many times... Just remember where the screws go back and make sure all the interlocking tabs go where they are supposed to go. Make yourself a cardboard template with the holes from each side so that they stay together. Don't forget to put washers back on those screws that require them...typically on painted surfaces.

Sounds like a tip I should use, but not sure what you mean. Can you explain more please?
Just a bit of card suitably marked up so you can stick the bolts/screws in the same pattern
Here's one I did when splitting the 9R. Zoom in and you can see all the detail etc
Ah, I see, thanks. Good idea. Better than my laying them out on the floor like that :wink:
I was imagining some sort of guide/tool that assisted when putting the panels back.
I just use small containers for each section and then work backwards when refitting

In a rubber boot [same as front ones], under the metal bracket to the rear of the main ECU. You may find it easier to move the ECU forward to gain access.
Thanx mate was looking in the wrong place DOH!!!!
Did you get my PM or SMS?

You have to take the tool holder out, then lift the ECU out and you will find a rubber boot behind it with all the wires in.. If you don't do that, you will never find them
Yep, all received.
I know we have talked here before about the 5 amp fuse for the accessory socket, but it also covers the two pairs of accessory leads front and back, so potentially very easy to overload the 5 amp fuse.
EDIT: well done Debs,I forgot about removing the tool box
Thanx Debs for the most valuable piece of info required.
And as for the 5A fuse calculations say I will have plenty spare as front socket is for go-pro anything else goes in tank bag which is powered from aux fuse box I installed earlier.

The wires ate hard to find. Most people find similar wires and make the mistake of assuming they are the accessory wires.
You need to go all the way back to find them
Got em the little feckers manual is pants. Thanx to all that provided assistance :):):):)
