have 01 electraglide classic. bought the HDMOCO cruise control kit and instructions show it is the latest update as of March 2000.
Either directions have an error or bike is wired wrong from factory (per hdmoco tech line-they're not sure).
page 4 of 8 item two. SET / RESUME switch install.
Install set /resume switch wires into cavities 11&12 of connector [22] as follows (see fig 11 for connector location) (these wires are blue /black and white/blue)
Now fig 11 is a view looking into the front fairing looking at the back of the gauges etc.
connector 22 is mounted at approx 5:oo to the right speaker.
and over on the otherside at approx 7:00 to the left speaker is another connector labeled:
Cruise harness to the interconnect harness connector [6]
Now in figure 12 is a wiring schematic of the CRUISE HARNESS this was installed and attached to the cruise control module mounted to left side of battery box under left cover.
Now the FREE CONNECTOR end of this harness is labeled: TO INTERCONNECT HARNESS [6A]
Now reading the color codes of the wires in this harness and the pin numbering, this harness connector [6a]
connects into interconnect harness ultra overlay connector [6b] (labeled as such per 01flht service manual).
the wiring color codes and where each wire is located is the same on both plugs, and before the cruise installtion was / is the ONLY available connector to connect to.
Now here is the confusion / problem.
directions indicate the blue /black wire should go into cavity 12 of the cruise control harness.
this cavity is blank and plugged from the factory.
However the matching cavity on the bike interconnect harness this pin/ cavity is ALSO empty,
So putting the wire where the directions say to would not do anygood.
Now the directions say to put the white/ blue wire into cavity 11 of the cruise control harness.
However, there is a white / green wire there that per service manual schematic goes to the radio (so probably should NOT remove this one) . The same white / green wire is also in cavity 11 of the bikes interconnect harness.
Ok you follow so far?
Now in the cruise harness connector [6a] and in the bikes original interconnect harness connector [6]
in cavities 9 is a blue / black wire ( like one I need to install)
in cavities 10 is a white /blue wire (like I need to install)
Ok now I repeat my question.
I called HDMOCO and told them of the problem cavity 12 goes no where so can't use it. 11 is already used.
They said MAYBE bike was wired wrong at factory.
I asked did they maybe forget to update the cavity numbers in the directions? they didn't know.
So does any tech know the answer to this.
12 goes nowhere on the original harness / connector both sides are blank and plugged.
11 has another wire in it for the radio.
so do I instead pull the wires that are in cavities 9 & 10 and put new wires there or what?
Thanks for any help you can give
Since the answer may be indepth and may require realtime back and forth communication
please answer here briefly and email me if we need to talk on the phone.
