    Replacement connector for oil pressure light

    Anywhere I can get one that is exactly like the stock one? Mine fell off and its the only light that doesnt work on my GS850. The wire is intact and just needs the new connector. Any leads would be greatly appreciated.

    I'd post in "parts wanted" -- there's bound to be someone with an otherwise trashed wiring harness who will peel off that connector and several inches of the attached wire to send to you cheap.

    Splice the wire in neatly and the GS Concours d' Elegance committee will never know...

      Or you could slap a female spade connector on there are call it good. Tweak it a bit with pliers so it's really tight.

        yep, thats what i used. finish it up nice with a bit of heat shrink tube to cover it. (just cut a slit in the tube after shrinking it, so it can slide over the switch connection)
