Need help with dash/ wiring
2010 Street Glide
The PO had installed a IPod cable going from the throttle location, down the bar and into the lower dash, thne it comes out just below the radio and plugs into the Aux . I want to replace it with a standard 1mm pin type cable.
It looks like I have to remove the lower dash cover to get to this area. I have removed a screw on each side of the cover but it isnt coming off yet. Do I have to remove the ignition switch to remove this cover? The cover I'm referring to is the one that has the cruise switch and the acc switch mounted to it.
Thanks for the help

RickK,
Think about removing the OUTTER cover.
remove 3 screws and windscreen
REPLACE center screw lightly
Pick a nice soft spot to lay down the fairing, towel on bench, whatever
IF you have spot lights, cover with tube socks
remove screws from fairing inner
now you just have the 1 center screw you put back in, remove that while supporting the fairing...pull back slightly, reach in with 1 hand and pull headlight plug
fairing shell is now free
easy.
most of these things you can find a video on youtube.
pulling the ign. switch can be a pitfall for some riders who try shortcuts.
