New Moto Guzzi Door Mats Available Now
There is a 2 pin socket under the seat on the right hand side of the tray that is for a USB accessory. One of those pins is a switched live, I can't remember which pin so test it first. It's number 1 in the rather poor image I've attached.HTH.
Thank you sir! Ok, so I plan to use this socket and have sourced the other half of the plug that plugs into it from Amazon.So when I plug my Amazon half of the plug into the bike plug, I now have a positive and a negative wire coming out of my Amazon plug to tap into. My relay wire to my fuse block is a single wire….. So how exactly do I connect the relay wire to the two wires coming out of the plug? Do I crimp,solder the relay wire to the positive wire from the plug and tape up the negative wire? Or something else?
You only need to use the live feed. The negative can be mounted to any frame bolt or the battery negative. Try to borrow the correct crimp tool and only use the live feed, just leave the other one blank. There should be pins and blanking plugs in the kit you have bought. Use one pin and one blanking plug and you are good to go.
Thank You! What I bought from Amazon was 5 complete male/female 2 pin plugs, not a kit with parts.So let me rephrase what you said to see if I have it right.When I plug my Amazon plug into the bike plug, my Amazon plug will have a positive and negative wire extending out of it. I am going to crimp a butt connector and shrink wrap the positive Amazon plug wire to the fuse block relay wire and then take the Amazon plug negative wire and attach it to a frame bolt.Do I have that all correct?Another inmate over at ADV, told me, instead of connecting the neg wire to a frame bolt, I could just tape it up, out of the way. ??? What do you think? I want to do this once and do it right.Thanks in advance!
The Amazon connectors have the red and black wires reversed from how the bike is wired. You will need to remove the pins and swap them. It's not hard to swap the pins but does require a little finesse. I use the USB two pin connector as a switch for my Eastern Beaver relay block.
Plug the Amazon cable into the under seat connector. With the switch on, check the voltage with a volt meter on the two wires (Red and Black). It's possible that whoever made yours is different from mine, but I would check it before assuming it's correct.Also to remove the pin you will need to push a smaller jewelers style screw driver or a push pin or tack just above the pin on the connector side (not the wire side) to release the pin.
