• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Need help identifing wire harness connetors

Haze

Well-known member
2013 ST-S had the Tupperware off during some service work.
Installed a BajaRon Sway bar and Spring adjusters not yet shown in the photos.
Anyway, I found several electrical connectors that I need help to identify.
Can anyone help?

1. Large connector above the shock on the throttle side.



2. Small connector above the shock on the throttle side.



Composite photo throttle side



3, 4, 5 Group of connectors on clutch side



I'm hoping these connections lead to the switch panel and will offer power for OEM accessories.
I know I have to do some circuit tracing with my ohm meter at the switch panel. 1 and 3 appear similar.
2 and 5 appear similar. 4 puzzles me. I have spent a good bit of time with the wiring diagram to no avail. :banghead:
Any help will be appreciated.
Cheers, David C.
 
Here's the thing..!!

making wiring harnesses is expensive so they tend to do one that covers all the models. Many plugs are not connected because you don't have those features. If you add them you just have to plug in and good to go....:thumbup:
 
MAYBE

Check and see what the LTD has standard for lights, they may be the connections and/or grip heaters and /or cruise etc. Mike
 
Number 4 is North America fog lights or CE low beam. There is a matching one on the other side. ST and RT have the same frame harness so there are a lot of orphan connectors.

On the frame harness look for the right style connector. Then compare the identifying code with the wiring diagram. That should tell you what it is for. You may need to look at RT wiring diagram for options that are not available on a ST.

Thanks for the help and the Frame wiring diagram.
I will be busy tomorrow with the ohm meter trying to chase the grip heater circuit.
My ultimate plan is to install grip heaters, USB charger and a powerlet outlet.
Later in the winter I'll work on driving lights too. :2thumbs:

If you are going to install grip heaters I would consider just getting the kit from BRP. It's only $229.00 MSRP and likely you can get it cheaper from a discounter like Cheap Cycle Parts. The amount you would save by hooking up aftermarket parts may not be very much.
 
Both grip heater connections are near your #2 but forward on the bike.
Mine had a green and white wire to each connector. There was about one inch of wire exposed. The connector was black and shaped like a rectangle.
The wiring for the switch is already run to the blank near the parking brake switch.
The BRP kit will only plug into the correct wires.
