I wonder because I purchased a gear indicator on Ebay, but it seems to be for later model, -04 and on.
It has only one big connector, i suppose the earlier one is has the expensive one with two connectors.
Please help me sort this out... :frustrated:
Not sure what you mean really but all models have the same 'dealer mode' plug. However K5 onwards also has a 12v supply and earth to the same multiplug that the early bikes don't.
I thought all 14's a plug to bring up fault codes ?
I ride a K2 and ahs it also. Did need a model specific gear indicator for mine.

They do & it's the same plug. But K5 onwards also has a power & earth to the same connector.
My assumption would be the earlier bikes need a different gear indicator as they'd get their power from somewhere else. Although personally I'd just tap into the ignition feed out the fusebox (orange wire on early ones, dunno if it changed) rather than spend extra.
I think the change was to provide power to an optional alarm fitment?
TBH, I don't see the need for a gear indicator. After all Suzuki did fit a rev counter that tells you the same thing.
Worm Can gets bigger. Indicator slides in there with tyres, brakes, oil, etc etc. I like mine.
The GI-Pro with two connectors fits as shown in the photo. Plug n play :onya:
I pulled mine off after about a year when it started causing FI fault codes.
Ah there's a plug already plugged into the 'FI indicator' plug on my bike. I wondered what it was so perhaps its the GiPro gear indicator plug?
Unplug it & see what stops working.
Never really thought about my gear indicator, Healtech. Been fitted 8 yrs, works perfectly. Fairly sure its in between connecters as Froudy said, nothing plugged into diagnostic plug. Just checked price, sure has gone up. I had a read, similar can be made cheaply, really not difficult. I paid , results good. :)
OK. Then this will not fit my K2 from 2002? There are one pic of my SEPP gear indicator with two connectors and one red cable. Instructions say that I use only one of them (?) I found one similar connector, the one with a pink cable, but it's already used, that's second pic.
And there is a third pic of my diagnose connector, with EIGHT cables. Nothing seems to fit.
Anyone had the same problem?
:boogie: :notworthy: I connected it between the plugs with the pink cable and then the red cable to + of course. And then voila it counted up to six and back to 0. The installation instructions were really lousy, but I bought it cheap on Ebay, perhaps thats why? Some apprentice.without mechanical or electrical knowledge wrote it. :doh: this is how it's connected. Remains some cable routing and location of display.. Anyone knows a good cable to put the red cable for ingnition on?
Mate, horn positive. Just get a piggy back push on connecter.
Connected exactly as I showed in my photo above.
I can't remember which igninition switched +ve I used now as it was many moons ago and I no longer have the bike. From memory it was somewhere close to the battery.

Orange wire under the fusebox maybe? that's the one I always use.
I've used the +ve (Orange/Blue wire) of the connector: it's switched, has it's own fuse, can easily be connected/disconnected... and the fan never kicks-in anyway:-) Works like charm for years.

@Hooli Yes I remember now..It was that one I hooked into :onya:
