Default Wires in handlebars-removal

Doin the front signal relocation, already did a search, confused on the wire removal from the handle bars. remove the signal from the handle bar mount, then do i remove wires from signal then pull wires from the throttle mount and their will be a conector in their or do i pull from center of handle bars. am i correct in thinking once i pull the wires through, i reconnect them to the signals or do i have to run new wire to the signals and from where, sorry if i missed something

I think the wires you are talking about are under the tank. If you are relocating the signals from the bars to the forks. Look under your tank where the neck meets the frame. There is a black cover there. The wires and plugs are under there.

Unplug the harness under the tank and remove the wires from the plug. Take apart the switch housing. There is usually a small ziptie in the housing that holds the sig wires to the rest of the harness. You will have to cut this ziptie. Remove the signal from the switch housing and pull the wires through the bars and switch housing. There is a small grommet on the bottom of the housing that grips the sig wires, you may have to remove it to get the wires to pull out. The sig wires should come out fairly easy.

Just make sure you only unplug the sig wires. They are the two small plugs.

Watch this video from SCLonghair, similar connector, with small tab that holds the pins in, once you get one the rest should be easy.
