USB Port Installation

Cheers,

I recently purchased a USB port from Leonelli so I can charge my phone so I’ll have GPS tracking. I live in the Pacific Northwest and it’s very easy to get lost in the forests around here. I’ve tried connecting it twice without and luck but I failed both times. I have their instruction but I can understand what I’m supposed to be doing. I’ve contacted several people for help but nothing has worked. Below is the schematic and if you understand how it’s suppose to be attached please get in touch. My bike is a 2023 Gasgas TXT and obviously has no battery. It just gets its power when the bike is running and generating charge.

im no electrician by any means and the diagram is confusing to me. There’s three wire coming from the unit. One goes to the USB which is a no brainer. The second is a ground wire which also is easy to figure out but the third is where the powered device is supposed to be attached. It shows two methods of attaching it but it’s confusing. There are two snap on connections to the power wires and I have no idea where they’re supposed to attach.

Thanks guys and gals!

Thanks for the suggestion Lemur but the Vista port "L"  Salida 12VDC output doesn’t seem to exist on my bike. I can’t find it anywhere in the jumble of wires. I’ve found the regulator/rectifier and the CDI. The rest is wires and connectors. I’m sorry if I’m being an idiot but between an Italian diagram, a Spanish diagram and my parts diagram nothing looks the same. They all use different symbols  and I’d hate to have to spend another hundred or two hundred dollars to have someone attach a $45 part.

Follow the fan wire all the way back to where it first joins in with other hot wires, that is a reasonable place to pickup the positive connection, use the chassis ground for the negative.  The fan switches on and off by make or break of the ground connection via the thermostat switch.

Would be cheaper and easier to buy a USB battery extender.

I just have to say that I’m really impressed by your knowledge and willingness to help others. You’ve certainly been around the block and speaking for others we appreciate your efforts. I’m new to this and have a goal of doing all the maintenance and work on my bike myself as is reasonable and it’s others like you that make that possible. Thank you Lemur!
