OK Didnt find this in my search anyone else have a similar issue. I wired my heated gloves to the acc sw, worked normal for a yr.
OK acc switch on, light on, and gloves heat.(normal)
Acc switch off the light goes off (thats normal) gloves stop heating (thats normal) BUT if I apply either brake the acc switch light comes on (with it in the off position)
and the gloves do not heat(that parts normal).
If I unplug the gloves the acc sw light does not come on with either brake applied, all it takes is one glove to cause this to happen.
No blown fuses. No chaffed wires. wiring is with the correct deutsch plug and pinned correctly.
So Im at a loss.

I need to buy a factory manual with wire diagram

 

Do u have anything else u can plug into the plug? Curious to c if there is something feeding back with the glove

 

Not yet, this just came up last night. I'll need something with the same barrel size plug. However I did use a digital fluke meter to see if that would get the same result as a glove and it didnt. I'm off work tomorrow and will have more time to tinker with it, was just curious if anyone else had ran into this, since I was sitting on my *** at work..

 

No reading on the meter when you squeezed brakes

 

Rereading your posts. If it does it with global CES plugged in do u squeeze the brake with the gloves or lay the gloves on the seat? Wonder if something inside glove feeding back when under pressure?

 

Nope nothing.

I thought of that too, just laying on the bike, either glove does it too.
I need to find something else that I can plug into it to try. I just cant figure it out.

 

Ok I stand corrected, apparently I missed something or just didn't check it like I thought I did.

But I am getting power with the sw off and either brake applied........And now to think of it the stealer did "fix" a "bad" wire to my ABS Module back in I think Oct causing a constant ABS light....HUMMMMMM

 

Lol maybe you need to work on your memory as well. Good luck hunting the wiring down

 

Well after buying a shop manual and looking at the wiring diagram the acc switch even in the off position gets power from the brake light relay to what ever is plugged in to acc plug.
So basically I've been chasing my tail, for nothing, and I ironically even the mechanics at the HD dealership said that that must be wrong. They thought I must have a bad brake light relay but I swapped it with the start relay ( they are the same) and get the same results.
Not really sure what HD's reasoning behind wiring that way, but there must be a reason..

 

I will have to see if it works with other things plugged into it. That is where I have my led's wired too. I always leave them on so would not have noticed this
