Regulator connector block - tips to get crimps in/out?

Post by oldgreyandslow » Mon Jun 13, 2011 9:49 pm

Thanks to some advice on here I've ordered a replacement connector block as well as the reg/rec and it comes with new crimp terminals, no problem cutting the wires off the old one and crimping on the new terminals, one at a time of course. is there a special tool required to insert and/or remove them later if needed? or is it a case of care and a small p[air of pliers.

I am not a fan of auto-electrics!

Also I can't get my bloody datatool 3 to go into "valet" or maintenance mode. so trying to work on the bike with the alarm going off evet few minutes is bloomin painful on the ears!

i just did mine on sat just gone,

i just used a pair of pliers and soldered the wires on, thats why these things fail is because you get a heat build up from loose connection, so make sure there a nice snug fit,
