Default wiring connector question

Ok, I need some help with what seems a silly problem as I am installing the HD passing lights, I had no problem removing the ignition switch, outer fairing, fairing cap and disconnecting the 12 pin multilock connector, BUT
heres my problem, I cant get the wires from the switch to "push" into the connector all the way ! They go in far enough that I have to stick a sharp object into the front of connector to pull them back out but I cannot no matter how hard I push get them to go in all the way, and I feel pretty sure I am inserting them correctly (notched side facing small clip inside connector) in fact they wont even start in any other position so like I said I feel sure I am inserting them correctly. Any advice would be highly appreciated
My bike is an 09 FLHX StreetGlide
Thanks

Steve
