Problem With Din Plug Adapter

I think I’ve got the exact same adapter on my GS Dougie and it hasn’t moved at all, though I don’t tend to take it out like you do. I wonder if the tangs have compressed a bit with frequent removal and refitting and if so could you gently open them out to give a bit more of a push fit?

Mine drops out every now and again. So far there hasn’t been a problem but the wire and plug drop through the frame and is difficult to recover on the move. I now wrap the wire around my phone holder bracket so if it does come loose, it won’t drop far.

 

I noticed my Optimate was not connecting properly as the charging lights were not normal. I did as suggested above and teased the contacts out inside the socket (battery disconnected) and plug. I could feel it was tighter and the connection was solid. Worth a try.

Sounds obvious, but make sure you leads are long enough if the distance changes lock to lock on the steering or pushed to a place that can be snagged.
