Ok im sitting here looking at it now.. Does this method require wire splicing or even soldering? Buying new connection ports or is it plug and play? Heres what im looking at...

Original 6 point tail light bracket (would leave it like this but turn wires are too short and seat will crush it.) And the wire connector unit that was under the fender that ran to the back




I looked at the diagram and what you wrote.. But im mainly confused when you say just throw the brake light unit out. Where will the turn wires connect too? The plugs dont match up for the turns to connect into the turn module without the 6point unit from the tail light

 

Any pics of your set up would greatly help. The wire diagrams and wording is waaay confusing for me for some reason

 

Yes you have to cut the wires from the tail light and splice them. The module you bought I assume you know goes under your seat. Take the long wires that run under the fender that you cut away from the tail light and splice the turn signal wires to the wires coming from the turn signals. Don't worry about the wires that are coming out of your tail light. They are not needed. The module you bought is used normally just for making your turn signals run brake and turn and to work in tandom with your original tail light. That is why none of the other wires are needed because the tail light is eliminated now so you only need to find the two turn signal wires in the group of wires running under your fender. Sorry I didn't take any pictures when doing mine

 

Just to add a step by step. Pull the wires out of the rubber under the fender. You need total of three wires in that group. Black is ground. If I remember correctly purple is left turn and brown is right turn. Connect left and right turn signals black wires to the black wire on the bike by either solder or wire connectors. Then the purple to the left turn signal and the brown to the right. Don't worry if the brown wire isn't the same color as the actual turn signal wire. It ran to that circuit board originally then came back to the turn signal as purple.

 

Ah thanks brother! Going to get extra wire connectors today and crimp them so i can make a quick release set up. Also going to look into the license plate light thing

 

Dk sells lights that go in place of your license plate bolts. For that you would use one of the striped wires in that cluster. They are the running lights. That is what I used except the lights I bought also had red lights in the tips and I wired them to the brake for extra brake lighting. Wasn't worth it though because they aren't bright enough to be noticed when braking. I had a buddy ride the bike and I followed him and the regular brake lights drowned them out to the point the my weren't noticeable.

 

thanks, just ordered one to be safe. Dont want to attract the LAW or give them any reason to stop me

 

ok last major question before i get the wire cutting. i want to add connectors... but will these wire crimp style male/female connectors work? they are quick attach/detach. suppose i crimped and connected each wire individually instead of the plug clips like the ones from the harness. im afraid of throwing electrical codes so im being hesitant


and this is my color added diagram just to make it easier on my eyes

 

Do not use crimp garbage. Similar Harley plugs or solder, two layers of plastic tape stretched tight followed by shrink-wrap. Then black rtv forced into each end of shrink wrap. (Use proper size shrink and do not forget to have it on before soldering...)

 

ok thanks Ripsaw ... i dont have a soldering tool so ill be going to get the clips soon as i get out of work. pretty sure Autozone or oreilly carries them
