Yes it is down there behind the metal plate. Silly place for getting wet, but the unit's alloy casting acts as a heat sink so it does need to be in relatively fresh air.

Just check the pins inside the multiplug (sitting on top of the unit) are clean and there is no scorching. Make sure the plug is
fully home when refitting. Buy some dielectric grease designed to protect the terminals inside connectors, use liberally, for a few quid its well worth investing. Not sure Yamaha fixed anything really? General concensus of opinion is the faults that showed up on early bikes were due to poorly seated connectors. I guess they just do a more conscientious job of fitting the plug in the factory now and dealers are more aware of checking it!
