Make sure you don’t have any insulation caught in your green wire connection.
Gotta have only bare copper in there. (Yes, I’m grasping at straws now...)
If anyone happens to have their fairing off, can you check the wiring to see if it matches mine.
Specifically the locations for ground, parking and reverse camera.
I'm wondering if my parking wire is in the wrong spot.
Here is the plug from an AX100 which should be the same. Notice the blank between the ground and parking?
My plug has no blank there, it's after the reverse camera wire.
This weekend I'll take the front off again because I'm also wondering is they miswired the HU harness.
Sorry I didn't catch this earlier. I don't know wtf that thing is but I know one thing, you don't need it. All you do is ground the green wire to a KNOWN GOOD GROUND and it's done man. I've installed 12-14 of these so far on bikes ranging from '08 beat up dogs to my own brand new bike, same green-to-ground each time and it just works. Obviously the HU ground needs to be good too, as with the 12V constant and swtiched need to be good power.
About the main wire harness, I can tell you this much, DON'T TRUST anyones wiring if it came pre-wired. The very first HU I bought came with a pre-wired Scosche adapter and when I plugged it in it SMOKED. Dumb-asses wired it wrong. But I'm the real dumbass for not checking.

That's what I thought. Know what tool to use to remove the pins so I can move them into their correct spots?
Instead of moving the wires, I should be able to just ground the purple wire since that is in the "parking space". No pun intended.
