Really neat Fuel Pump Controller bypass

[AndyW-inuk]

How's this then?



...as an alternative to the options already detailed for example here on ukGSer: 1200GS Fuel Pump Bypass Cable

The latest generation workaround - just remove failed fuel pump controller and connect between the connector plugs on the bike, much better than having a long flylead to the battery or splicing wires into the bike's wiring and easily carried under your seat. The black connector is the original from the fuel pump controller! :aidan

Full details and instructions on dismantling a failed Fuel Pump Controller to remove the black FPC connector and making the bypass lead can be found here (blow by blow instructions with lots of photos):

And there's an alternative version already!

"Could you leave the plug in the alloy housing and connect the lead to the bottom so that you could fit the now empty housing on the the original mounts and use the original gasket so that you have a certain amount of waterproofing if you have to use this over a period of time?"

"I did think of that but....but but............ok I didn't! Great idea I see no reason why not other than the small disadvantage of size.
Maybe someone can post me a photo of a version like this sometime please"
