I have the older (grey) CANBUS charger (71607688864). Has worked fine for years on my K1300GT via the Hella socket near the gear lever.
I have just used the Accessory Socket by the headstock to wire-in a relay to a cigarette lighter socket, to power my satnav, using pins 1 and 3. All works fine.
The charger won't have it! I get the Red error light on the charger.
What happens - turn bike on, then off, wait c.60 seconds. I hear the relay drop-out when the Accessory socket shuts-down, then the charger shows "Error".
If I disconnect the plug (that feeds the relay switch) from the accessory socket, all is well.
I know the simple solution is to connect the charger to the battery, but I like the existing set-up.
Any ideas?
