    Hi
    Appreciate there are a few comments on switched live etc
    But I have bought a set of cameras
    And wondering what the existing connectors are for ?
    The small connector with a couple of orange the connections and the larger one with the back cores approx 4 plus
    Any help really appreciated
    Thanks
    Chris

    Chris.
    The yellow (r/h side) is an ignition switched wire which goes to the tail light.
    Be careful, though. I have a couple of pals who have fitted INNOV cameras and use the yellow for a switched power source. That set up seem to slowly leak power and drain the battery in two or three weeks if the bike isn't used or charged.
    You could use an Innov or Denali power hub (which is an electronic relay) to do the switching and use the yellow wire to tell the power hub when to switch on or off. The power hub itself uses only a tiny amount of power and cuts off power supply to the accessories completely when the ignition is off. There is no danger of any leakage. Oh, and the power hubs are canbus friendly.

    Hope that helps, ride safe.

    Hamish.

    I bought a healtech for my '22 GT Pro, as I was adding sat nav and powered phone holder and wanted them switched.
    Was dead easy to fit and add accessories to.
    The black connector I'm not sure about, I thought it was for a heated seat but mine looks different to that.
