as above...I have posted the pin out previously for the acc plug- which you need to identify using the manual...there are also unused plugs for the canister purge solenoid and acr's on some models.
search for my post(s) with the pin out...or look at the bottom side of the plug...do not attach to the blue wire (run) or the red/yel ( brake)----
black is ground, the remaining wire ( orange?) is the acc

A new relay won't solve it; you'll still have the same issue. On the connector in your picture there are four wires, ground, always hot, switched hot and brake. If you use the switched hot (and ground) your Sat Radio will power on when you turn on the ignition so you don't have to turn it on and off each time you ride.
Good luck and ride safe!

You are right, I unplugged the brake light relay and plugged in the identical starter relay and I still have the problem with the accessory power plug losing power when I use the brakes. I do get power to the sat radio when I turn on the ignition and it goes off when ignition is off, as you mentioned. Should I disconnect one or more of the pins in the accessory plug?

Mike, I've examined the accessory plug wiring, 4 wires, and the power port plug wiring which has 2 wires, a black and an orange. I can see that two of the wires on the accessory plug pins, the ones you want disconnected, are the ones that are connecting with the two wires on the power port plug pins. Now I think I need to read my manual and find instructions for moving the pins in the power port plug to the right place in order to connect with their counterparts in the accessory plug. I'll keep you posted. Thanks.

Conncecting black to black and orange to orange results in no power to the power plug. I'll have to try other combinations. The accessory plug has 4 wires/pins, black orange, red and red/yellow......no blue.
