Hornet 2008

There is a white 3-4 pin connector plugged into the tray of the seat cowl just in line with the rear seat section of my Hornet 2008 model. It seems to be plugged into a dummy connector seated into the tray or bottom of the cowl.
It comes off the loom in a Y junction with the leads that connect to the rear lights.

Any guesses?

It is for the Honda Averto Alarm. There are several on the wiring loom, as it just plugs straight in.

The same on the CBF500.

Hi Kev,

Thanks for the reply. I kinda guessed it might be for that or as an auxillery for some other upgrade.
Do you have any more info. I’m going to order a Scorpio i900 alarm. It would be useful to be able to plug it in there rather than start messing with the rear tail light cables.
If I could get a matching connector I could probably rewire the alarm accordingly.

Regards,

BM

They have pretty much everything you’ll need.

Thanks for that. A useful site, although I couldn’t find the indicator connectors I was looking for, although I did see them on eBay. The i900 can be purchased with a compatible harness anyway so I might wait to see just how compatible it is.
Does anyone know if the wires that lead to the plug I mentioned in the first part of the post are split from the same tail wires. ie. would it normally be a straight plug in because they connect to the indactors, rear tail light, etc. I haven’t got a meter to test it with I might have to use a bulb soldered to a couple of wires and activate the indicators, and brakes to check.

Also where would I get a compatible connector?
Lastly you guys might want to look at they’ve got some good diagrams and you can order parts directly.

Conrad
