Description Switched-power adapter for BMW motorcycles

Code DNLWHS10000 — DENALI code DNL.WHS.10000

Connecting an accessory directly to the battery means it remains powered even when the motorcycle is switched off, with the risk of draining the battery. This adapter draws power from the BMW GPS connector, found on motorcycles equipped with Nav preparation: the accessory turns on and off with the ignition, without terminals on the battery posts.

The Posi-lock connector is already installed, so there is nothing to cut, drill, or solder, and it is CANbus-compatible.

It must be used to control a relay, not to power an accessory directly. Connecting a direct load overloads the circuit, and the CANbus cuts power until the overload is removed. The relay is sold separately as part of the wiring kits.

Keep in mind that on many BMW motorcycles, the accessory circuit has a factory delayed shutoff, and connected accessories follow the same behavior.

It is specific to certain BMW models: send us the motorcycle model and year, and we will confirm compatibility before you order.

Why choose it

Collegare un accessorio direttamente alla batteria significa che resta alimentato anche a moto spenta, con il rischio di scaricarla. Questo adattatore preleva l'alimentazione da un connettore originale BMW sotto chiave: l'accessorio si accende e si spegne con il quadro, senza morsetti sui poli.

È specifico per alcuni modelli BMW: scrivici moto e anno e confermiamo prima dell'ordine.

How does it work, in detail?

  • Power that switches on and off with the ignition, without connecting to the battery.
It is intended to control a relay, not to power it.

It is intended to control a relay, not to power it.

This is the point DENALI puts in writing that almost nobody reads: this adapter sends a signal, not power current. Connecting an accessory directly to it overloads the circuit, and the CANbus cuts the power until the overload is removed. It should be used to control the relay of a wiring harness, which is what actually supplies power to the lights.

FAQs

For more information, see our FAQ of frequently asked questions.

Do I need to connect it to the battery?

No, and that’s why it exists: it draws power from a connector already present on the motorcycle, without clamps on the terminals or cables that need to be routed under the seat. The installation remains completely reversible.
