It looks like the new (2025) bikes have replaced the accessory connector. At least on the 2025 Street Glide Ultra and consulting the online schematics there is no switchable power connector. So gone are the dash switches and any hookup for all the bling lights you might want to add. There is an accessory connector, sort of, It's P325. This gives you access to the CANBUS. If you chase the wire back from the P&A accessory plug (12 pin Molex) you wind up at the BCM. CANBUS technology is not new. Harley has had it on their bikes for some time but now if you want to add accessories (unless you mount your own buttons somewhere) you have to find a CANBUS receiver that is comparable with Harley (Good luck with that one) I would guess Harley will come out with add on'$ some point down the road. Anyway anyone know of a comparable CANBUS adaptor that would work on a Harley ? Ciro3d.com makes CANBUS receivers but nothing that is comparable with the current models. I talked to the guy there and he said they would going to come out with some products sometime in the spring. So long story short, Does anyone know of a product that this compatible with the 2025 Harley's product line.
Connector 325 is the accessory connector.
Red (pins 11 & 12) are battery hot.
Violet/Blue (pin 9) is switched acc power, hot with key on. This also feeds to heated grips.
Federal legislation required automobile manufacturers to install On-Board Diagnostic II (OBD-II) systems in all passenger cars and light trucks sold in the United States in 1996.
The bikes have it now. But the port requires and adapter. And last check, there are 12 different adapters across the bike manufacturers.
Difference brings out the best. But the OBD2 port is established. With millions of cars.
They could make it Wi Fi Hotspot on board without an adapter. What my BlueReader is but only with the adapter signal.

See them all along with what they are. In a bluereader, you can then click hit for a further description of what also may really be the issue affecting that code.
I get it. You really don't need it as long as you have a Service Manual, or search Google or YouTube. Set bike and click thru them.
I just ask a question to the first poster.
Keep forgetting about the stalkers.
