Ok, I've finally found what I think was the cause of the instrument LCDs flickering on my FZ6 because, after spending ages taking the front of the bike apart, and testing the instrument cluster, as I was putting it all back together this wire came out of the plug!
It's the black and white one which is the earth (ground) connection, so it would affect everything else on the instrument display.
I've only got about 1 1/2" (4cm) to play with, so I'm thinking the best thing to do would be to strip the end back and put a bullet connector on the end.
I'd then get another piece of wire, put the other half of the bullet connector onto that before soldering or crimping the free end to the connector in the plug.
Does this sound sensible and the best way to proceed?
