Default Bike is not getting power

Hello I recently bought a 95 1200 sporty. I took it to Harley to have some work done but later decided that the bike was just not worth the repairs. It went into the shop with a crank no start issue. So the carb, exhaust and spark plugs were taken off. I decided the bike was not work the money to put into it and was going to sell it. They gave the bike back to me with a parts box, and still apart. After the bike came out, there is no power to any lights, or ignition. The battery is connected and so is the main fuse. Are there any other issues I could check into, or things that the dealership would disconnect and not put back together? I found this harness disconnected, if anyone could tell me what this is that would be great.

this is on the underside of the tank

Is this the same Sportster you had issue with and posted about on 02-28-2022, 04:45 PM?

If the bike is not worth the repairs as stated, sell it for parts and be done with it.

No disrespect but if you are not capable mechanically to repair your motorcycle and do not want to pay someone to fix it, you probably should not own it.


Good luck and best regards.
