Loose Wire near battery what is it?

[spl383]

Doing several modifications to the bike and as I was finishing changing the light bulbs I found this loose wire near the battery. I am not sure if i somehow pulled it out or where it should go.  Any help?.

Not to worry, that is just a terminal that allow an obd2 to communicate to the ECU, only when you do your own maintenance or the dealer. In the mean time is not connected to anything, but do attach the terminal to a kind plastic holder that goes on top of the battery.

It's where the DealerTool connects if you ever buy one! Of course also used by the dealership for diagnosis and such!!

I will buy one soon, I recently bought the bike so I have a lot to learn about it.  I have never had a high tech bike like this,  I am used to carbureted single and v-twin bikes that are easy to work on.

Has any one connected a generic OBDII scan tool to this connector instead of the Triumph Tool ?  If so, does a generic OBDII scan tool communicate with the ECM and yield data ?

I added a bluetooth transmitter but the code in the phone saw the bluetooth device but did not seem to understand the protocol.
