Question Unknown Connectors

So i just completed the radio shack siren install today. Works like a champ. Sure cant beat the price. Anyway, i bought this bike new to me last Aug. Its a 2008 anniversary Ultra. When I removed the left side panel to install the siren there were 2 wires with connectors on them. They are round large connectors that look like it may be for heated gear. I'm not sure. Any idea of what they may be? Or of you have any photos of the connections maybe i can see? If it is for heated gear, are they always on and always ready to connect? I stuffed them back in under the cover nice and tight so they are not exposed. Any ideas? thanks Jeff

Sounds like it is the heated gear connections as they are round. The battery tender connection is usually a two pole flat connector. Do you know if there is a battery tender pigtail on the bike? Best thing to do is follow the round connectors and see if they hook up to the battery and are fused.

yes the battery tender connector is on the right side of the bike. these 2 connectors were on the left side but hidden under the side cover so i never saw them until today. I will dig into it another day but I suspect that is what they are. Since I don't have any heated gear it really wont matter anyway. thanks.... Jeff
