Title: WTB - Norge tail light connector
Post by: atavar on May 04, 2015, 09:16:45 PM
I am installing the light kit in my Givi top case.  I would really like to find a connector pair to make an adapter instead of hacking in to the wiring harness to add a diode. 
Does anyone have a dead/wrecked Norge they could cut the connector out of leaving some inches of wire for soldering to?
Alternatively do you know of part numbers and a source for the connectors?
TIA, Please IM me or reply here if you can help.

I think I found the connectors and pins at digikey.  About $40 for enough to make two adapters.  Ouch. 

If I do order these would anyone else like a plug-and-play insertable (no cutting stock wires) adapter with outputs for brake, tail and brake/tail signals?  Your cost would be like $20 plus shipping, actual cost, no profit.

Here is a link to what I am thinking of ordering..  http://www.digikey.com/short/7wdnm3 (http://www.digikey.com/short/7wdnm3)

Completely different connector.  These are three pins only.  I did get the ones from DigiKey and they worked great!  The Givi connectors used for the installation are a PITA though, they have to be aligned perfectly.

I took the link off to avoid confusion that you refer to here. The OBD connector on my Norge is the same 3 pin connector as the tail light and ABS interface.
Ordered the goodies you so kindly listed from Digikey.  ;-T  Can't wait to hook my extra brake light!

The only caution I make is to ensure you are putting the right pins in the right holes on the connectors.  The pin removal tool costs more than the connectors.
