Starting Magnetic Switch connection to main loom

(1/4) > >>

Eldrick:
 Starting Magnetic Switch has a Red & White cable and Red Cable coming from it. I have just replaced the wiring loom and the new loom has a Box Connector on it. I am sure it is for this cable, however, the old loom had this cable on a 'double bullet' connection. This looks like a patch job to me.
I made a patch with spades to fit the box, the bike started. What I need is a new cable that will fit into this Box connector. I can only presume it is a sealed connection due to the   high voltage passing through it so I don’t want to use the patch I made as the spades could easily touch or arc. Does anyone know where I can get one?



Sesman:
Only 12 volts passing through there. Did you mean high current to the starter motor. If so solid connection is more important than insulation, but it does need insulation of course.

Bryanj:
Check where the wires in the loom go to, from memory red/white goes to rectifier and red to ignition switch or fuse box depending on year.
Let me know and i will tell you what to connect where, bike would be helpful as well, and please dont say its in sig details, i like most never look there!

McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
Is this on a 400 - if it is it looks like the connector that slots into the bottom of the battery box area under the fuse box.
One side is the loom the other is the block connector to the solenoid or fuse box forget which?

If the block connector is missing Kojaycat sell them.
