95 1100 LT just quit while going down the road

I went back to the begining

I remembered when I first got the Fuel pressure regulator problem fixed and I ran the bike for the first time. I got a little sparking and arcing from the fuel tank mounting lugs and I stuck a ground wire on the fuel sender screw like 98lee suggested. After going over several of the replies and suggestions along with rereading the Adventure rider thread I decided to replace the Fuel tank sender/fuel pump four pin connector. That connector failed the old fashion power it up, twist the connector and watch the fuel gauge. I picked up the replacement down at the local NAPA, nope not a trailer hitch connector but a GM style water proof unit.

I installed it and everything works as it should consistently. I have to go to work in just a few minutes but I'm picking up some fresh gas on the way home to put in it for the test ride tomorrow. I have a feeling that its fixed and may gold plate the OEM connector as that's about what my tail chasing and parts replacing cost me in time and $$$.

I'll let you know if its good or I got to push again.
 
If that fixes the problem, it was probably the brown chassis ground wire either at or just next to the connector.

Aren't intermittent electrical problems fun?:hungover

I know this is old

But was the connector the issue,,hate when we don't get a final conclusion to a problem.
