Grouch Posted September 23, 2012 Share Posted September 23, 2012 On Tuesday I am finally getting a new speedo fitted to my pride and joy. I am going to take the original speedo off myself, my problem is......... What shall I do with the plug connected to the loom which will no longer be of use? Shall I cover it in tape? And how will this affect all the other electrics? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wild foamy Posted September 23, 2012 Share Posted September 23, 2012 depends what plug it is, what it feeds and what it takes feeds from Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grouch Posted September 23, 2012 Author Share Posted September 23, 2012 It feeds the speedo so it controls that, neutral, indicator, side lights, high beam lights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wild foamy Posted September 23, 2012 Share Posted September 23, 2012 then wouldnt you need it to feed the new lights on the new speedo?... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grouch Posted September 23, 2012 Author Share Posted September 23, 2012 No the speedo has all that and it has it's own seperate power supply, it connects to the battery. This is the one I have bought. A garage is fitting it. I just wondered what will happen to the plug. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/New-Trail-Tech-Vapor-Digital-Speedo-Dashboard-Stealth-Motorcycle-Universal-/140842979969?pt=UK_Motorcycle_Parts&hash=item20cae55281 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wild foamy Posted September 23, 2012 Share Posted September 23, 2012 if it comes with its own sensors they will probably leave the wiring in the loom, in which case stick some tape over the plug and it will be fine, that way you can use the original clocks again if you need to, i find it odd however that they would wire in its own sensors rather than taking feeds from the bikes original sensors, just creating more work really Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
