Default Tail light delete

I bought the Run/turn/brake module with the intention of just running the signals and removing the huge tail/brake light in the middle of my 2007 Fatboy. Need help with wiring this configuration. Thanks

Just follow the wiring diagram and instead of tapping the tail light wiring just use the wiring from the tail light.

I understand the look you're going for... gotta set up your bike the way you like...

But the thought of reducing any rear lighting on my bikes, with the distracted drivers all over the roadways today, makes me cringe.. I went the other way and replaced my "huge tail/brake lights" with BAL-1 LED lights to make them stand out more...

Please ride safe...!

The more light on the rear, the better.

if you are replacing lights with LEDs it will give you better rear lighting i think compared to big tail light with a bulb

It is very unlikely you will get an answer from Mike 0609. You quoted his only post to this forum from 30 December 2019, 4 years ago. That was also the last date of his activity on the forum.

Default 3 brake light wired into the main harness

Finally did this and made a video, found out that it works to splice 3 run/brake lights into 1 out of the main harness plus a load module 🔥
