Title: Corbin Heated Seat - Need seat to power cable
Post by: rdawg on November 20, 2011, 06:55:26 PM
I bought a used Dual heated seat for the wifes bike (2009 Ultra). Took the cable off to fit it to her bike and haven't been able to find it.  Contacted Corbin and all the will do is send me to a dealer.  My local dealer called and they want 50 bucks dealer cost for it, so my cost would be close to 75..... :oops:
Anyone know who makes the connectors where I can make a pigtail to the power connection under seat?  It's a 6 cavity plug to fit the box under the seat.

Call Corbin in California tomorrow.  Ask for Julio (pronounced Hulio)......he'll fix you up. :2vrolijk_21:

Thanks JC, I'll give it a try.  I called and emailed and got the same corporate response......call a dealer.  Modesto HD was nice enough to tell me their cost, can't see this connector and 2 wires being 50 bucks....

I have a few Corbin pigtails and other bits out in the shop.  Not a clue right now if one of these is in the mix but will look tomorrow and let you know if I've got it.

Just for grins try to find pics by some shop offering a six pin molex connector.  Might be what you're after.

That's probably for the full wiring harness (male and female side) but for that price, it'd be cheaper for you to just ride over to Corbin on a Sat. and get one directy from them.  Julio would probably just give it to you.

Looks pretty similar don't it?  Found this at Aliiedelec.com.
Thanks for the help!

Pretty sure that's what it is.  Corbin did not always use that plug tucked way up under the saddle like that.  Used to have a simple pigtail connector that hung down below the seat.  Much easier to connect when raising or lowering the saddle. 

My old Road Glide's saddle arrived a couple years ago with that connector.  I cut the harness ten inches or so below that connector and added a simple two wire Deutsch connector that is a lot easier to get to when taking the seat on and off.

If memory serves me right, Molex connectors not only come in different configurations, but in different sizes too. .1x, .09x, etc.. They are not expensive but check for the correct size when ordering online.  Pretty easy to make up your own harness with a good pair of glasses  ;D
