square plug under your seat in front of your battery box. And i'm not tryin to be a dick when i say, seriously, shop manual for your bike will be the best 60 bucks you ever spend if you wanna do anything with that bike other than take it to the dealer.

Yup, but it's not called a shop manual, it's a service manual, and everyone should have one who has a bike. Even if you don't turn your own wrenches, there's more information there than you'll ever need to learn anything that you want to about your bike.

You do not really need a switched power for those type of items because they have thier own on/off switch and you will probably just remove them when stopped anyway. Just run a wire with a fuse off the battery.

You said "2nd aux switch." Are you saying your bike has two? As in, a previous owner added a second aux switch?
