Default Accessory connector under side cover?

I have a 95 flht with an after market removable tour pack.
It has no wiring in or to it.
I would like to add a power socket in it and maybe add a brake light at some point.
I looked under the left side cover and found three empty sockets.
One is a triangle with three wires. red w/white stripe, blue and black
One is a molex connector with three wires. Orange w/black stripe, red and green.
The other is a six pin which I can't reach to read without removing it.
What are these plugs for?

The accessory socket is a square socket about 3/4-1" square and it usually has a rubber plug in it . I will try to post a picture of it.

That's the one I could not get to with a meter.

Do you know what the other two are for?

Thanks.

If you have a factory service manual I guess that will give you a clue. Even my older tourpak has lights in it and wiring. Sounds as if someone has disabled yours at some time. I used a quick release electrical coupling in the base of mine (I added it to my FLHS) and wired it in. I would guess one of those connectors is a candidate for wiring in yours. I have four wires, ground, extra rear light, extra brake light and side lights. I disabled the aerial as I don't have a radio.

The accessories connector is under the seat on a 95. I have a factory manual and will try to look at it tonight after work to see what your connectors are. Which side cover? Left or right?

Need to see a pic as the only things my manual shows under the left cover are cruise power, rear harness and CB power (Ultra only)
