Er, to keep the wires connected..........More info would help us to help you. :)

are they in teh same circuit as your signal lights? could be the non-connected grounds.. my 90 gs had exposed connectors because the signals were only 2 wire.
'90 GS500F - streetfighter in progress... booyah!

I'm guessing they're for a running-light/blinker turn signal. The headlight has 2 random open wires that run a brown and brown/white that aren't connected to anything either.

Plug a test light into them when the key's on and see what happens.

What colour are the cables either side of the connectors??


motorbikebuddy

answer found....here is the info you guys might need as well....

if someone gives me instructions on how to post a pic i will or contact me and ill send a pic to you

The smaller of the two plugs is a switched live on the ignition. The one
that has the loop in it comes directly from the ECU as is for fitting
of alarms in the Japanese market and should not be used.


I would however like to know where i can get an alarm that i can just plug into the one with the loop........sounds like an easy fit option


Danny500

Well, i guess it doesn't matter what it's originally used for... all it is is a live wire once the ignition is on... cool... use it for anything you want. Cigarette lighter/charger would be a good idea if you have a cell phone.

Or, get turn signals with the running-light option (3 wires) and go that route.
