PLEASE HELP-Changed bars, no power
Ok, I have a Road King Classic, 2004. Today I decided to change out my bars. I had to pull the internal wiring through the old bars. I removed the pins from the connectors making sure to both mark the connectors as to what wires went where AND also drew out a diagram just to make sure. I got everything disconnected, pulled the wires through, mounted onto the new bars and replaced the wires/pins back into the connectors.
I have checked these connections multiple times now pulling them apart and checking everything and all is good. All the wires are in the right spot and all the pins are firmly in place.
That is literally all I have done and now the bike has zero power at all, nothing. Turn on the ignition and not a single thing lights up, pump doesn't run, nothing at all happens.
What I am i missing? There has to be a limited number of issues that would prevent the bike from having any power what so ever. Just to be sure it wasn't a battery issue (it ran fine yesterday) I had it connected to a charge and still nothing.
I wouldn't think that any of the controls wiring would have anything to do with the over all power of the bike but I am a total loss.
What could be causing this?

So on a whim i decided to check the actual wiring going into the switch....over course I didn't work anywhere near this area. But it turns out that was the issue.
Now the only issue I am having is that the clutch cables don't seem to like the new bars because my throttle isn't snapping back. Not sure if I can just make this adjustment by adjusting the throttle cables next to the housing.
