What is the plug for that is by the right side passenger footpeg? It's coming out from behind the removable panel. For some reason I can't upload a picture.

No sir, that is on the left side. The plug in looking at is not an SAE connector, it looks like any other plug on the harness. It has a cap on it.

Yeah... I live on a dirt road. Damn sensor goes off all the time! It only stays clean for the few hours it sits after I wash it... And I ride rain or shine, every day. Put 800 miles on it this past week.
