Don't see what bike you have, so I'll ask. Do you have fender tip lights and are they working ? I put the LED headlight and spots in, and I started getting a red light just to the right of speedometer. Showed an error code for low voltage. Found both fender tip bulbs blown !

I have a 2017 Softail deluxe, with just over 1000 miles on it. I am not near the bike now so I'm not sure if there's laying on the front fender or not, but I can't imagine they would both be blowing already. Also I would've thought that if they were blown the light will stay on continuously it comes and goes.

Yeah, you would think. But that's what mine did, maybe it resets every time you cycle the key. Ride On !

I received in the mail today two plugs from Sun Pie.

Can anybody confirm if this adapter is supposed to go behind the headlight or does it go on the two passing lamps?

thanks to gdishman for the help. My battery connections are tight and my voltage is fine. The harness did indeed go with the headlamp, it is installed so I will ride it for a few days and report back, it has not thrown a code in the very short time I had to ride after I installed it.

Sorry, wasn't following the thread. This is for the thing: LED Headlight Canbus Error Free Anti Flicker.

The passing lights were hardwired, so no the antiflicker goes into the headlamp.

It was really intuitive, looked like a short extension (pigtail), here's an example link to 3bay. I'd have to tear it apart to get a part number, but just make sure it's the same shape as your adapter to the bike.

Same thing here. This anti-flicker harness thing is huge. Did you somehow fit it inside the headlight housing?

The headlight housing on my deluxe is huge, it fit in there with plenty of room to spare
