Step 4: Wiring
Electrical:
Run the Red and Black power wires directly to the battery (non-GSA
version only). The fuse will protect the system in the event of a short.
Locate the power relay box in a safe location. Secure with a zip tie. It is a
good idea to face the relay box with the wires coming out the bottom. This
helps keep everything dry.
Route the two Black connectors for the lights to a convenient location
where they will not interfere with steering or any other moving parts.
Install the switch (non-GSA version only) in a convenient location. Refer to
the sticker on the switch for proper placement.
Switch - Crimp spade lugs to red, yellow and black wires from relay box.
Attach to corresponding tabs on switch. (See wiring diagram)
Using Posi-tap, attach red (turn on wire) to a switched 12v wire. See
wiring diagram for your motorcycle.
Install connectors as shown in the wiring diagram on page 9.
Note: extra crimp on connectors provided in connection kit for if you would
like to shorten the wires.
High Beam Feature:
• Locate your bikes High Beam headlight hot (+) lead. This will make
your lights go to full power when you turn on your high beam. Use a
Posi-tap to connect one of the white wires from the relay box to this wire.
It does not matter which white wire you use; both trigger the same way. If
you do not want to use this feature, simply tuck the white wire away in a
neat fashion.
Horn Feature:
• Locate the Horns hot (+) lead. This will make your lights flash to
full when you sound your horn. Use a Posi-tap to connect one of the
white wires from the relay box to this wire. It does not matter which
white wire you use; both trigger the same way. If you do not want to
use this feature, simply tuck the white wire away in a neat fashion. See
addendum for ground switching bikes.
Wire Routing: (Please consult owners manual for wiring diagram and color codes)
• Be sure to route wires so that they cannot become tangled or caught
in either a suspension part or steering part. Check movement of both
steering and suspension before riding the bike.
• It is sometimes helpful to follow existing wire routing.
