Default 12V source in fairing

Hey Guru's
Wondering if there is a 12V Source in the fairing to put on the Amp REM so that when I turn off the radio the Amp will turn off.
I have a 2018 Streetglide,
Thanks

As long as you don’t overload it. Beside the headlight is unconnected power and ground for European lighting requirements. This is switched with the ignition. I’ve used it for connecting various accessories.

yes, i believe it's a small blue or purple that's the signal wire? I know where it is on the RG but not the SG. Biketronics actually makes a plug and play pigtail for it

On the brake side there is a 2 wire pigtail the purple wire is the hot and used for switched accessories. Or you can use the cigarette lighter lead too!

There is no 12v source available that turns off when you shut off the HU. You will have to install a manual switch to turn power on and off.

Thanks SBates08, you were right. Never hurts to ask.
I see like 2 big unused plugs that I think are connected to the HU was wondering if there is a 12V source in 1 of them that switches on/off with the radio.
