ACCEL IGNITION

7. Route the wire harness along the frame tubing to the ignition coil.

Make sure that the harness is clear of hot exhaust areas and cannot

chafe against sharp edges. Secure the harness with nylon cable ties.

8. Refer to the appropriate wiring diagram. Use the dual fire hookup

shown in Figure 4 if you have an OE coil or other coil with two primary

terminals. Use the single fire hookup in Figure 5 if you are installing

an aftermarket coil with three primary terminals. Use appropriate

crimp terminals for coil and VOES hookup. With the exception of the

tachometer and rear coil section (single fire only), standard H-D®

wire color codes are used. Tape up any unused wires.

9. Install the supplied Weather Pack connector set on the brown

tachometer wire as shown. If a tachometer is not used, seal the end

of the mating plug with silicone RTV and use it as a protective cover.

Use a proper Weather Pack crimping tool or solder the terminals.

10. Single Fire Tach Hookup. If your motorcycle had a tach before instal-

lation of the ACCEL module, the tach was connected to the pink coil

wire. When you connect the tach direct to the ACCEL module as

shown in Figure 5 for a single fire application, you must make sure

that it is not still connected to the pink coil wire. Trace the wire going

all the way back to the tach to avoid an inadvertent coil connection.

11. Reconnect the battery ground cable. Complete the setup and timing

procedures given on pages 3-7.

12. Reinstall the cover plate using two supplied 10-24 x 1/4” socket head

screws and lock washers in place of the original rivets. You will have

to tap the rivet holes on the inner plate (do this with the plate removed

from the bike to avoid damaging the ignition). You can use the sup-

plied 10-24 x 3/8” self threading screw as a tap.

CAUTION: Engine damage from excessive timing advance may result if the purple/white VOES wire is

inadvertently shorted to ground.

NOTE: The unit is grounded by means of the gear case

housing. The mounting surface must not be anodized or

painted.
