Two months ago bought 2000 CBR2000XX BLACKBIRD. Just found out about this problem that luckily stranded me only 20 miles from home. I cannot download the pictures for below. Are they available anywhere else?
This is the hardwire method that you may want to use first rather than last as it is a permanent fix.
The block has 20 poles, 19 wires go into it and within the male portion of the block it joins one row of 10 on the one side (all green earth related wires)and 3 lots of 3 on the other side with one unused terminal.
Cut the wires off the connector on the 3x3 side first..they are in their own colours so you don't get to mix them up.
When I stripped the insulation off the copper wire was black for a fair way up, there isn't really enough length to try and cut them back to perfect shiny copper so I cleaned them with a small wire brush and contact cleaner. Soldered the three wires together then used 2 layers of heatshrink tubing to seal them
