Electronics » Switched live feed

Looking to connect up a camera, but struggling to find a suitable switched live. I'm not about to alter the factory harness so was hoping to make a splitter to hijack the feed to the accessory socket, but can't seem to find compatible connectors anywhere - does anyone here know of a source?

Thanks

Thanks Wessie. Yes, I've been browing around here and saw your set up mentioned in my travels. Completely reversible is one of the reasons I wanted to make a splitter - just plug-n-play - I just can't find the plugs/sockets anywhere.

Possibly related - do you know what this is for...

One white wire, one black wire. |addpics|pwb-1-2b65.jpg|/addpics|

You can get one of these. You disconnect the plug going into the accessory socket at the back then plug this in between the connector you have just removed and the socket. It has an extra connector coming off it which is now a switched live.
You can then simply cut off the connector and either use a fused junction box, or wire it directly to whatever you want to power.
This splitter and it’s use are well documented on other forums. I have used them on a GS and have one on my RS. The great thing is you do not have to cut into your bikes wiring, which is always a daunting thing and when you come to sell it it is un molested B52A99DF-2FBE-4852-ACCE-B3628F581D2F.jpeg - Bild entfernt (keine Rechte)

That's exactly what I was after - many thanks. I never really realized it was a genuine beamer part. £50 seems a bit steep though. Oh well - thanks.

Hi Wessie,

Can't see those on my 18 model, do you have a pic of the location?

I got one from Williams in Manchester and I think it was about £30.

Cheers Wessie, I will have a rummage when I get back later

there are 2 real fuses under the rider seat - held in a black pod. One is always live for the alarm and keyless ignition, the other is switched. 7A & 10A I think.

I have added a piggy back fuse and then fed a wire under the tank shroud to provide me with power for my tankbag. Just tagged the earth wire to a subframe bolt.

With the piggy back fuse you cannot get the assembly back in the pod so I used self amalgamating tape to seal it together. Worked fine for nearly 3 years.

The benefit of this set-up is that it is completely reversible without trace.
