Through Wire
NOTE:
This installation to the VS1400 Intruder requires removal
and reinstallation of the upper Triple Clamp. Refer to your
Service Manual for the proper tools and procedure.
NOTE: Grounding is through the frame.
NOTE: An assistant will make steps 1 (A through C) much easier.
Note, Light Bar Wiring Helpful Hints:
The long Blue
wire is the main power wire for the spotlights on
the light bar. Connect that to the main power source from the
headlight. Either the High Beam wire or the Low Beam wire.
The choice is your preference. Turn on bike and Check.
The two short RED wires are for the turn signals. One RED
wire
for the Left side turn signal and one for the Right side turn signal.
Turn on bike and check.
The two short BLACK wires are for the running lights. One
BLACK
wire for the Left side running light and one for the Right
side running light. Turn on bike and check.
The Light Bar attached to the front fork of the motorcycle serves
as the ground in most cases. A precautionary step to insure
proper grounding is to take one of the Black with White Tracer
Ground wires from the existing turn signals and ground that
between the Light Bar Mount and the Triple Tree Bracket.
Always start by doing one side at a time. Preferably the right
side or high side of the bike first.
NOTE: check vertical aim of the lamps. They should
aim approximately 5° downward. If adjustment is
required see “Adjustment” page 2 of this instruction
otherwise proceed with wiring step 2.
