    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

I'm gonna get some laughs or possibly gasps of horror, but what the heck is this thing?

Second Question:

I got new gauges from Dime City and I don't want to chop up the old gauges.
Where can I find this kind of connector so I can plug into the same spot the old gauges did?

Nice picture of a black, curved wire, but please give us another clue (or three).

One clue would be ... what colors are the wires?

Another clue could be ... how long is it?

.
 
you're right! So sorry!

The colors are faded, but it appears to be green and black

It is about 2.3 feet long when stretched.

One end has a rubber shielding (as you can see in the picture) which suggests to me that at one point it was attached to the battery... but my wiring diagram does not show any such thing

Thanks!
 
Yeah, I noticed that boot, but the only wires that connect to the battery are LARGE or red.
Actually, the red wire is usually captured with the large wire to the solenoid, and might be at either end of that wire.

The only (all) black and green wires are the turn signals, but they won't have that boot at one end. :-k

.
 
My 78 1000 has ground wires for the signals that look similar to the black wire with the ring on it.Guessing the green should be the power wire to the signal:-k None of mine had the boots on them.
