Default 08 rkc accessory switch

i bought a 12 power point from hd that mounts on the right side cover, and is supposed to plug in under the seat or under the fuse box. after checking for an hour, i take it this cant be used on the road king classic?

this is a rkc correct? i think they are different then the others...in front of my battery is a plug, but not the 4 pin square that the 12v adapter has...also, the one under the fuse block does power off and on with the switch, but if i plug anything into it, i get a check engine light. the repair manual shows it as a abs sensor plug.

Testifer Sorry I misled you I thought you were looking for the accessary plug off the ignition sw. which is the one under the seat The acc.sw. on the left side of your fork terminates in the headlight if I remember right on my 07 RK. The plug under the seat is switched off the ignition and comes off a 15 amp fuse.
