Default Alarm issues

So, I got the HD pager security system but the kit didn't come with the right instructions and I have no idea how to hook it up. Does anyone know or have a link to a write-up? I've tried searching but that didn't work either. If it helps, I only have the stock alarm system with no horns.

I would call the place or person you got it from and let them know of your situation, then get the right instructions. It seems to me to be a commo problem from what your post states, and by both the equipment and place of business. I don't have that item, but I would be on the phone asking about it from where you got it.

I would look on HD's site. Find the part there and they usually have a
downloadable PDF with installation instructions.

I took out the battery and found something under the battery mount that looks like what you described. It said something about not touching, rotating, or moving it. I don't know if that's it but there are two connections under the seat frame that look like they'd connect to the harness that came with the pager system. Might that be it?

that is most likely it , the alarm module plugs in there goes down in the hole under the battery, attach the siren under the bike run wire up to connector by battery
