Converter unit wires

Made a mistake and lost wire order on my wiring harness plug that goes into converter unit.

Here's what I think is right and plugged in now.

Clip side

Nothing. Blue/yellow stripe. Nothing
Black/blue stripe. Green. Yellow blue stripe

Pictures or confirmation on your bike would be great. I've been scouring forums and can't quite get a good enough look. Want to be real sure to not fry my stuff.

Thanks

Ok sorry thought that was good enough. When I went to do it I had a hard time telling difference between black yellow and black white. White look to be on same row of 3.

Here's what I think is right and plugged in now.

Clip side

Nothing. Blue/yellow stripe. Nothing
Black/blue stripe. Green. Yellow blue stripe

Also has anybody soldered connections directly to the connectors on the converter unit? Seems very fragile from what I've read.

So any confirmation or pictures would be great. Got conflicting info from another thread I read. I have a 99 hawk

If you mean not use a connector dont do it. Unless you are stranded on a trip you should track down the proper connector or at least individual plugs. Try molex or corsa websites. One of them has that plug.

I have connectors that fit very tight. Thinking of soldering that on. Trying to make it good as possible. Looking through those websites not having much luck tho

Right underneath the seat. It's a squarish black box with a 6 pin connector.

Should be 6 inches from icm.

I cant see it but my whole tail is modded. Plastic all hacksawed out and sheetmetal trunk installed, as well as an alarm and extra fuse box so maybe just too cluttered

When I get to my SH I will take a look at it.

The way I remember the connector only goes on one way. Did you completely get rid of the connector?

Yea at the very base of the plug on the wiring harness I had an exposed possibly burnt wire. I had it all hooked up but decided to secure it better but forgot I had to keep the plug or wiring there to know order.

Lol I even kept it around just incase I needed to check wire order until I tried to "rebuild it"
