Title: Coil connector plug seals.
Post by: trophydave on December 17, 2015, 07:34:15 PM
Are the seals that sit inside the blue plugs that fit onto the coils available from anywhere?

I was afraid you'd say "yes". 

I looked for these a couple years ago after one popped out while I was changing plugs, and I never found it.  The clip and shape of the pins look Delphi, but I've never been able to source it.  I finally ended up cutting some spares from an old wet-suit. 

Unless someone else calls it out, I'll dig a bit and see if I have more success this time around.

I popped one out of my old harness. I looked on BikeBandit.com here in the states and they show nothing except the whole wire harness. I took a picture so you can see what you are looking for:

Delphi 12033769B is very close to the one on our bikes. There is one for $6USD on US eBay.

It might be backwards after looking closer.

This looks pretty darn close

Yea... I was looking at those also. You can get those for $.25 USD. It would be worth a try.

to beat a not-quite dead horse tiger:
When I resort for all Delphi 2 prong seals, there's only one that's black (the middle with no illustration).  Maybe I'll try one of each flavor and post back here

Edit:  Ordered one of each, (yeesh, the postage was more than the items)- I'll post back with photos here when they arrive in 4-10 days.

TrophyDave, if they work, I'll post one to you.

I think they're just looking for the seal not the whole connector

I bought a Delphi connector to replace my main fuse connector. It came with one of those seals mentioned above. I tried to squeeze it in the blue coil connector. It wasn't  a good fit... but may be possible with the right amount of determination. :icon_wink:

Thanks for the replies.In the end I bought the cheapest 955 loom that I could find on ebay.It was off a Sprint ST but only because the Tiger ones were quite a bit more money.OK 15 quid might be a bit steep for a couple of rubber seals but there should be enough bits of wire and various other stuff to last me for years.

I returned from some travel for work today to find a Mouser envelope in the pile-o-post.  To close the loop, what follows is a poor pic of both items outlined in the catalogue screenshot above.  One item ( the one with no catalogue illustration) is a female side of a 2 prong connector that appears to be 1/2 of a water resistant assembly.  The seal that was what I was after is actually black, but appears to be the same as the connector in the Mod-man Dirt's pic. I haven't had an opportunity to pull the tank to see if it'll fit, but my guess is it's too big. 

The choice of cannibalizing a surplus harness seems to be a good one to resolve the issue.
