OBD connector? OBD2? (Wetheads)

[Scott9999]

I thought that I read that for the 2017-2018 model wetheads that they had the standard OBD connector, and didn't require the 10 pin conversion cable, that it had a standard OBD interface plug somewhere under the tupperware.

 

Yet, I found what I believe to be that connector under my pillion seat.   So, I assume that I'm going to have to add that cable 10 pin to 16 pin cable to my "BMW Tool" shopping list.

Did I miss something here?  Is that standard 16 ping port used on the shiftcams?  The Wethead GS only?

That is the harness plug for the 49 L top case (electrified) for central locking and auxiliary LED brake light.   The OBD connector is located behind the panel on right side where the battery is located.  It has a retainer to keep it from moving.

.... and cause I removed that top case just two months ago, I know that.

 

Or I did.   Senility sucks (almost as badly as pure stupidity).

 

I could have been really creative and just pulled the cover off the right panel, but ...uh... asking dumb questions was easier.

 

Thx for being polite with the answer, William.
