So this weekend I plan on tackling the installation of an Admore light bar. I've got the bar which came with Posi-Taps (awesome connectors btw!) and I have the service manual. Looks like it should be pretty straight forward, however I have questions with this being my 1st forray into working with the NC's electrical system (OEM heated grips & frunk outlet were done by dealer).
My service manual and this online wiring schematic (if you click the link it fails until you drop the 's' from https:// but fixing the link pre-post isn't working!) shows that the wires from the tail light should be pink/blue, green, and green/yellow. I need to tap into all 3 to provide ground, tail, & brake - not necessarily in that order. So this morning when I fueled up I took the opportunity to look under the seat at what wiring access I would have as I believe that is where most people place their taps. I see the 3P brake light connector, but the wires look like they're blue, black, and black!!
So for those of you that have wired in rear lights, what am I missing? Am I correct in saying that I drop the underside of the rear fender and feed the Admore cabling up into this area to make my taps? Do I rather need to somehow peel back an area of the covering on the main wire loom on the right of the picture to reveal the wires I should be using? I will also be tapping into the right/left indicator wires so figure they'll all be present in that loom. Or when I drop the underside of the fender will I be presented with a more accessible place to make the taps?
Your help is much appreciated! Pictures even more so!!
