Sat nag wiring help!

Post by Malj »

Hi folks, as its trying its best to snow up here I thought I'd have a go at hard wiring my garmin 550 to my 1100s, as I would prefer to have the power switched from the ignition I had planned to run the wiring from fuse 7 and the indicator earth ( as detailed on another post on the forum) however it appears that I don't have a fuse 7 I can only find fuses 1 to 4 on the left side of the bike and nothing on the right side.

I've put the multi meter onto the connectors at the fuse box and fuse 1, 4 amp, green seems to be switched from the ignition, can you see any problem spicing into it?, looks like it's the supply to warning lights.

I've also found the auxiliary socket under the seat but its permanently live so I'd have to fit a switch not the end of the world just a bit more faf.

Any ideas ?

Cheers

I wired mine directly into the heated grips circuit.handy to find on the left hand loom. Already fused and switchable on the ignition. Just cut into the wire and soldered it up. 10 min job.
The mounting was another matter entirely though.

Found a unused connector hiding in the right hand side wiring/relay box, green and brown so on the same circuit as lights, switchable by the ignition so once I find a female 2 pin connector looks like I'll use that.
