To any that have relocated their tail light to a sidemount. I was wondering how you went about wiring it?

The main harness to the rear lighting has six wires in it. Two of them are for power to the directionals. I beleive that Black is ground which leaves three wires left for the tail light.

If anyone can give me a rundown of how they wired theirs I'd appreciate it.

Thanks,

06 taillite wiring -

 

Mud:

I've got an 07 Street Bob. I'm doing away with the factory tailight so I won't have the luxury of using the connector plugs that are in the factory tail light.

So I was wondering how anyone else that has done this did the wiring? In other words what color wires went where?

I have the service manual and have that same diagram. I guess I'm just wondering if you can run the wires directly to each other? For instance, can I run the violet and brown wires to the directionals with a ground and they will work properly?

Thanks,
Deuce

 

duece, yeah the colors are all there for you in your service manual,
and yes you can run them directly.

The circuit board distributes the 6 in to 8 out.

If you can tuck that HD cicuit board somewhere out of the way,
it will save a lot of misery cause you can use the high quality
HD AMP connectors that you have on hand.

When I built the tail/turn/license assembly for my 06 mudSickle,
I did not have room for the HD circuit board so I used a 6 hole
watertight Delphi connector.

First picture below is an example of the Delphi sealed connector - a 2 holer.

Second pic is underside of the mudSickle fender showing the 6 holer I used.

Third pic - fire in the hole - turning right.

I've gotta catch a flight. I'll revisit this with you when I return from vacation. Thanks and have a great holiday.
