The harness is Honda P/N 32190-MCA-305

It is only for the early model GoldWings (01-03). In 2003 and later bikes, Honda upgraded the headset harness.

Folks,
I have an '05 with plenty of ignition noise, and while replacing the air filter this past weekend, I happened to have notice the very noise filter that you point out here in the radio harness, so I thought ;maybe’ I can make use of this power source. However, this line done not have any power to it. Is this only for intercom use? I am having noise issue with the ‘Aux’ power source for the accessory - the one under the left glove box. Does this noise problem have a solution? I have tried noise filters with some reduction, but it is still there.
Is this common? Can it be resolved?
Thanks,
Jaime

Hello again Fred
I contacted you regarding the noise suppressing wire harness.Thanks for the reply.My honda dealer is unable to tell me what part number or anything else about this wire.Does this wire replace an existing wire,and does it just plug in? Does it work?Do you know the part description?
Thanks
Bill Helm

There is a Honda noise supression harness upgrade kit for 2001-2002 wings that you can buy. I ordered one from Ron Ayers for about $70. I don't have the part number, but you should be able to get it from any dealership. It is already integrated into the 2003 and beyond models. I have some photos of it here on this site.

Hello Fred:
I have seen your Goldwing gallery,and was wondering if this fix works to eliminate ignition noise on the intercom.I have an '01 Goldwing and have added a Garmin 2610,and a Passport radar detector both together with a Kennedy radar interface.I didn't used to leave the intercom on until I added these, only to find annoying ignition noise on intercom mode.I have disconnected everything and put it back to stock and it is still there.Oh, I also have a power source filter from Electrical Connection under left fairing pocket.It runs my XM radio also with a ground loop isolater I have no noise on that through the AUX.Do you know of any way to filter the intercom I have looked eveywhere.

Thanks
