One of the three wires to the turn signal connector has broken off right at the connector making it almost impossible to fix.
Is it possible to get a new connector that fits the turn signal socket?

Mine had issues. I'm a cheap pastard and I couldn't justify the money to keep everything OEM. It's not like my ST will be entering a concord de'elegance judging competition.

So I just snipped the wires, bought a small housing 3-pin molex type plug and replaced the whole OEM connector set-up. Signals still function, plastics still dismantles, the world turns as designed and I spent a 1/10th the money replacement OEM connectors would cost.

Just a thought...

Thanks guys, I'll check out those links.
You don't happen to know what type that connector is called do you?

I don't recall off hand what it looks like, but Eastern Beaver has pictures of nearly everything it could possibly be.

From ST1300A ....I can recommend Joe at Cycle Terminal. I have bought several of the stock connectors for my ST1100 from him, along with crimpers and such. Makes it easy to tie into the stock connections!

This is a great source! Thanks for sharing!

Iirc, they are called Hitachi connectors. On a Honda? Go figure. And I bought mine from E. Beaver - but be forewarned that shipping will probably be north of $20. It pays to buy a lot of stuff from them so that the shipping cost is a lower percentage of the merchandise cost. Go in with a friend, and buy extra pins (you will be surprised how many you ruin). There are a couple of other vendors who sell these things. Try googling Hitachi connector and browse....
