STEP 28

Remove the seat and locate the H-D main wiring harness.

STEP 29

Turn the key “ON” and using a test light or the wiring diagram for your

bike, determine the left and right turn signal power, running light power

and a ground wire. Label each of these wires for their function or write the

color and function down. Turn the key “OFF” and disconnect the

battery.

Avoid potential electrical shock! Be sure to disconnect
the battery before starting this procedure.

STEP 30

Place one of the included female T-Tap connectors on turn signal power

wire

from

the

LEFT turn signal located in Step 29. Place one of the

included

female

T-Tap

connectors

on turn signal power wire from the

RIGHT turn signal located in Step 29. Place two of the included female

T-Tap connectors on the RUNNING light power wire located in Step 29.

Place two of the included female T-Tap connectors on the GROUND wire

located in Step 29.

NOTE:

If there is a run-turn-brake controller installed, the female T-Taps

need to be installed upstream (in front) of the controller. The

installation order must be main harness from front of bike with

the female T-Taps installed, then the controller, finally the taillight

harness.


STEP 31

Place a small amount of dielectric grease on the female T-Tap connectors;

insert the insulated male spade connectors from the BLACK wires into the

female T-Tap connectors that were installed on the GROUND wire, insert

the insulated male spade connectors from the BLUE wires into the female

T-Tap connectors that were installed on the RUNNING light power wire,

the insulated male spade connector from the BROWN wire to the female

T-Tap

on

the

RIGHT turn power wire and the insulated male spade

connector

on

the

PURPLE wire to the female T-Tap on the LEFT turn

power wire in the taillight harness.

STEP 32

Place some of the included dielectric grease on each connector. Connect

the three pin connector on the wire harness from the LEFT Saddlebag

Extension to three pin connector on the 8-Pin, 6-Pin or Hardwired

Run-Turn wiring adapter with the PURPLE-BLACK-BLUE wires. PIC 16

STEP 33

Turn the bike on and test that all lights function correctly.

ENSURE PROPER LIGHT OPERATION BEFORE RIDING THE
MOTORCYCLE. VISIBILITY IS A MAJOR CONCERN FOR

MOTORCYCLISTS. A LIGHT MALFUNCTION COULD RESULT IN

DEATH OR SERIOUS INJURY.

STEP 34

Place the warning stickers on the inside of the bags as shown in PIC 17 to serve as
a reminder to prevent the wires from being damaged when the saddlebags are
removed from the motorcycle.

NOTE:

After completing the installation, you may have to adjust your mufflers to

center them in the rear cut-out of the Saddlebag Extensions.

STEP 35

Replace the seat.


AFTER INSTALLING THE SEAT, PULL UP ON IT TO ENSURE IT IS LOCKED

INTO PLACE. A LOOSE SEAT CAN SHIFT AND CAUSE LOSS OF CONTROL
RESULTING IN SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH.
