Default Installing monkey bars, throttle wire problem

I put a set of 12" monkey bars on my 08 street glide, Does anyone know what color goes to what number on the throttle by wire plug? It didn't have a wiring diagram for it in the instructions. A buddy wrote down the colors but I hope he wrote down the wrong ones because the throttle is not working. The tab broke on the green plug but I taped it up real good and could not pull it apart, so either the green plug came apart or the wires are not in the spot. Thanks Robert

Yeah this is the order I have them in, well I guess its the green connector. Can I get the throttle wires out with out talking the bars back off?

I did the same thing when I changed my bars, thought I had the connector held together good enough even with the tab broken, long story short ended up buying another unit (about $70) I believe, and the dealer had plenty in stock, I wonder why....hmmm.

Im going to pull it back out and solder the wires together and do away with the plug first, and if that dont work I guess i'll be off to the dealer. Am I wasting my time or has anyone done this?
