what re those empty connector for. i removed my fairing to install a cable for my GPS and noticed these... any idea ? I included other photos for ones who are curious...mainly asking about the orange connector, white empty connector and the one with the red cap from the line that goes to the front headlight ?? Where does the ACC power go to when switched on from the dash next to my cruise button ??

Been wondering about that myself. Looks like some kind of diagnostic connector (the big orange one)

Have you checked it for 12 V current? If it has current when ignition is on, and you turn on your HIGH beams and the current is gone......is probably fog/driving lights.....

your ACC power switch is to the plug under the seat. I had to take off the battery caddy to find mine..but that's the one that the ACC Switch controls

I have a '06 SG and could not find the ACC plug, even took the battery out and the only plug not used had a large single red wire going to it. Could it be under the tank, or in the fairing? I don't need it yet but someday I want to get some fog lamps and will need to find it at that point.

Nevermind...must have had too much whiskey the first time, just went out and looked again and it was in front of the battery in plain site.

Anyone know what the plug in the same area is for? one large red wire going to it, I think it tees off the main fuse.
