Don't have the original tensioner setup, using a Hayden M6.

Is the wiring harness stock? If it is there is no circuit breaker off the + side of the battery, just a "fusible" wire. They started using a circuit breaker in 1978 for FX models. Definitely worth updating.

My 71 FX has a circuit breaker. 100% stock. They were mounted under the oil tank.

I made a page it has some good videos especially one on how to check your charging system which it sounds like you have a problem with and as mentioned earlier upgrade to the 32 amp with enclosed magnets

I didn't trust the readings when ohm test was done maybe it was my skill level with the multimeter, decided it was best to upgrade to the Cycle Electric 3 phase kit either way. Now just waiting for a few parts to arrive to tie up some loose ends and it should be back up and running.

I take it you have written permission to publish those manuals ? Harley Davidson has some VERY strict rules for hacked property. Also a nice bank of lawyers to find out just how deep your pockets really are.

I won't allow these manuals to be advertised on the HD Forums. the link has been edited out.
