I'm fully committed to upgrading my newly acquired '99' R1100RT I've named Licorice 'Twist', and have in process the left cam chain tensioner update, HES rewire and fuel quick-disconnects. Disassembling the rear lights I found multiple wire taps used to attach a Kisan Vectralight. Removing the parasitic wires I discovered one tap severed a directional lead entirely and THREE of the remaining taps broke at least one of the original nine tiny strands in the OEM loom! My remedy was to remove the taps, splice in and solder new leads to each conductor and renew the terminal ends with readily available spade connectors. The task was pretty straight forward, simple and electrically sound! Then I got to looking at how the fuel management module was wired into the throttle body wires. (see photo) A Remus muffler and a Techluison fuel management module had been installed and the O2 sensor removed! What stopped me from proceeding with the same 'fix' to eliminate the worrysome wire tap was my inability to remove the electrical plug from the conductors to the throttle body, strip back the OEM lead, solder in the management module and seal with shrink seal. How would you accomplish this task?
