Walk away from it for a bit. Cant think right when your stressing over it. Come back to it later when your relaxed again and it will come together. I've done more stupid damage over the years while aggravated.
well guys....thought I'd give an update....haven't been able to work on these bars since Thursday because I've been at work....14 hour days. I did get bars wired and tonight was thinking no problem...should be able to get them on bike and start putting everything back together...WRONG...lol any secrets to getting the pins on the switch wires BACK into the connectors....I'm having a HELL of a time....I got the TBW connector done without too much trouble but the others I'm stumped on. I have the lock wedges in up position and when I insert the wire...the pin is like lost in there and impossible to get lined up. am I doing something wrong....I don't want to man handle them too much .
