Im trying to wire my amp to the accessory switch so I can turn it on and off. I found the plug with the big rubber boot that I believe is it. My question is the some kind of adapter I have to buy to wire to it. I just need to connect one wire to it.
Thannks.
If you want the plug, I used HD p/n 91843-97 Supplemental 12v power point in the '09 Harley catalog page 479. I used this to power my GPS. It is basically the deutsch plug with the wire leads and a cigarette lighter socket. You can do away with the cigarette lighter socket and just use the deutsch plug and wire lead. Kinda expensive though at 19.95!
There isn't an "adapter" per se. You need the male Deutsch DT four-wire connector and a "socket" (for your wire end) to go into the connector so the connector will mate with the accessory connector ("plug"). The HD accessory mentioned in the previous post has the connector and socket already assembled.
You aren't going to wire the amp's main power to that accessory connector are you? High amperage accessories (such as fog lamps, etc.) are wired directly to the battery with that circuit controlled by a relay that is controlled by a lower amperage switch (in this case the accessory switch).

No am wiring the man power to battery just need the switch on to the accessory.
So the part # listed above will work or do I need something else.
