Default ACC switch. need to use it for some thing else

I have the acc switch in my switch panel from the factory and it's not used for anything. I was going to wire it to my garage remote but when I found the other end it was connected to a connector (not sure what kind) Heck i could be looking at the wrong connector all together but I was told the switch end comes out under the seat and this is the only thing I could find. Looks to me like it only has one wire and I think it is red. I didnt try to take the connector apart cause I'm not ready to wire the remote. Is this the right wire end? is there really only one wire or are there multiple wire inside that wire insulation?

thanks in advance!

My '09 Ultra has an accessory plug under the seat; which can take the standard HD accessory plug. If you want you can purchase the accessory outlet and just use the wire part (put the socket part away for another day)

You need to keep looking, there are two connections under the seat, one is a one wire connection that you found, this one is always hot. The one you are looking for has four wires going to the connection, 3 red and 1 black, this is the one that is controlled by the acc switch.

For the part numbers check out this pdf file from the harley web site. It has the kit number at the top or you can go to the bottom to get the individual part numbers to make your own plug. Good luck

The plug ("socket housing" in Harley-speak) is HD p/n 72114-94BK. You will also need secondary lock, p/n 72154-94, and socket terminals to go on the wire ends to insert into the plug, p/n 72191-94.

This afternoon I used those parts to wire an LED strip lite on a buddy's tour pak to work as a brake light. Works perfectly.

PS: Do yourself a favor and buy the HD Service Manual for your bike so you'll have information for assembling and disassembling connectors and the wiring diagrams to identify the circuits.

FYI The four wires consist of a ground wire (black) and with the ACC switch on, with the ignition switch on, one of the red wires is hot, when the ignition is in the acc position one of the red wires is hot and when the ignition switch is on the last red wire is hot when you mash the brake pedal. Use a volt meter to verify which wire is which.
