  • 5 - Blue with Pink Stripe = Left Turn
  • 6 - Black = Ground
2010 & Earlier Softail 6-place connector on vehicle has the following cavities/colors:
Cavity - Color
  • 1 - Black = Ground
  • 2 - Brown = Right Turn
  • 3 - Blue = Position (Running) Light in Turn Signal
  • 4 - Blue = Position (Running) Light in Turn Signal
  • 5 - Violet = Left Turn
  • 6 - Black = Ground
Installing the Lightbar
1. See Figure 12 and Table 2. Place a flat washer (17) on the 1-3/8 in. bolts (19) from the kit.
2. Fit the lightbar assembly and chrome front panel (16). Route the turn signal wires through the slots in the chrome front panel.
3. Thread in a flat washer and bolt loosely into the two top mounting holes in the lightbar and through the slots in the right back panel.
4. Route the turn signal harness to right side of the motorcycle.
5. Route the headlamp harness through the top hole in the chrome front panel and to the left side of the motorcycle.
NOTE
The chrome front panel should overlap the rear panels. The left rear panel will be installed behind the chrome front panel.
6. Place a flat washer (17) on the 1 in. bolts (20) from kit.
7. Insert bolts through the lower holes in each side of the lamp bracket. Thread in and finger tighten the bolts into the bottom holes of the chrome front and rear panels.
8. Mate the right side turn signal connector [31].
9. Mate the left side headlamp connector [38].
10. Mate the passing lamp switch jumper harness connector (15) to the 2-place connector from the lightbar wiring.
11. Holding up the left side back panel, press the wire harness jumper onto the lower spade connector on the auxiliary lamp switch.
12. Locate the power lead (Y) from the head lamp and press the spade connector onto the vertical spade on the auxiliary lamp switch.
13. Fitting the left back panel under the chrome front panel, thread in and tighten the two back panel screws to 20-30 in-lbs (2.3-3.3 Nm ).
Figure 9. Assembled Lightbar and Wiring
14. Tighten the 4 bolts to 19 ft-lbs (26 Nm).
15. Assemble lamp bezel rings (10), screws (21) and nuts (2). The screw heads should be on the outside of the bezel rings when they are installed on the motorcycle.
16. Purchase the auxiliary lamps separately and obtain the jumper wires (12) and nesting rings (13) from the kit.
17. Connect the jumper wire to the passing lamp wire coming from the turn signal.
18. Connect the spade terminals to the lamp. Lamp terminals are not power/ground dependent.
19. Temporarily fit the lamp and nesting ring to the housing and clamp the assembly to the housing with the bezel ring.
NOTE
Tab on nesting ring engages the notch in the lamp housing.
Return Motorcycle to Service
1. Pull fuel tank forward into position aligning the mounting flange hole to the frame hole.
2. From left, loosely install screw and washer through tank mounting flange, bushings, grommets, and frame. Thread on washer and acorn locknut on right.
3. At rear of tank, verify that rubber grommet and metal insert are protruding through frame. Metal insert has flats on bottom for positioning.
4. Verify that rubber ring is in place around grommet and insert and lower fuel tank tab over insert.
5. Install washer and rear TORX screw through tab at rear of fuel tank. Tighten to 18-22 ft-lbs (24.4-29.8 Nm).
6. Tighten front acorn nut to 28-32 ft-lbs (38.0-43.4 Nm).
7. Mate fuel sender connector on top plate.
8. Press fuel vent line at front of tank.
9. Position console and attach with washer and acorn nut. Tighten to 80-100 in-lbs (9.0-11.3 Nm).

WARNING
To prevent spray of fuel, be sure quick-connect fittings are properly mated. Gasoline is extremely flammable and highly explosive, which could result in death or serious injury. (00268a)
11. For FLSTFI (EFT): Snap on the quick connect fuel line.
12. Connect the negative battery cable.
WARNING
The automatic-on headlamp feature provides increased visibility of the rider to other motorists. Be sure headlamp is on at all times. Poor visibility of rider to other motorists can result in death or serious injury. (00030b)
13. Test the following lights:
a. Turn signals.
b. Auxiliary lamp switch and lamps.
c. Headlamp for high and low beams.
NOTE
The auxiliary lamps are OFF when the high beams are ON.
WARNING
After installing seat, pull upward on seat to be sure it is locked in position. While riding, a loose seat can shift causing loss of control, which could result in death or serious injury. (00070b)
14. Refer to the Owner's Manual, and follow instructions to install the seat.
Headlamp and Auxiliary Lamp Adjustment
1. As required, adjust tire air pressure to specifications.
2. See Figure 10. Park motorcycle on level pavement in a low light area 25 ft (7.6 m) (1) from wall (measured from point directly below front axle).
3. Draw a horizontal alignment line 35 in. (0.9 m) (2) above floor on wall.
4. With motorcycle perpendicular (90°) to wall, follow the perpendicular line and draw a cross hair (a vertical alignment line) on the horizontal alignment line.
5. To simulate normal ride height, load motorcycle with rider and intended load and stand motorcycle upright with handlebars squared. Turn ON the ignition and switch on the high beam.
1Measure 25.0 feet (7.6 m) from wall surface
2Measure 35 inches (0.9 m) up from floor surface
Figure 10. Horizontal Alignment Line
6. Using the horizontal and vertical adjusting bolts, adjust headlamp until the broad flat beam pattern is:
a. Centered vertically on the alignment line with equal areas above and below the horizontal line.
b. Centered horizontally with equal area left and right of the vertical line.
7. When aligned, tighten the headlamp adjustment bolts:
a. Horizontal to 30-35 ft-lbs (40.7-47.5 Nm).
b. Vertical to 35-45 ft-lbs (47-61.0 Nm).
8. With the auxiliary lamps in line with the headlamp lens, measure from the horizontal centerline of the headlamp to the horizontal centerlines of the auxiliary lamps and then from the vertical centerline of the headlamp to the vertical centerlines of the auxiliary lamps.
9. Using the measurements, draw crosshairs on the wall.
10. Under load, turn on high beam to verify headlamp alignment then switch to low beam.
11. See Figure 11. Turn ON the auxiliary lamps, cover headlamp and left auxiliary lamp and by hand turn right auxiliary lamp until beam pattern (2) fits the right cross hair extensions.
12. Cover headlamp and right auxiliary lamp and by hand turn left auxiliary lamp until beam pattern (3) fits the left cross hair extensions.
