Not Quite Plug & Play
| 2010 Wing. After installation the unit works great and looks absolutely OEM. Installation, however, was the problem…..I bought the extra wiring harness for an ‘electrical’ plug-n-play hookup. Hooked it into the accessory plug underneath the left side shelter storage box. Since the extra wiring harness had plenty of length, I took the upper shelter section off and incorporated the wiring into the existing main crossover harness underneath the shelter (just aft/underneath the radio module). No problems with that part of it. Physically installing the gauge/panel was the problem. There is an interference issue with the upper electrical connector tab coming off the gauge; it contacts the right radiator support when installed. I tried bending the tab slightly so that the connector and wire would clear the support, and of course the copper/brass tab of the gauge broke off. Fortunately I work in aviation in metal fabrication, so was able to fabricate a new copper tab with a design that exits the gauge at a different angle so as to clear the radiator support. Even with new tab design the clearance achieved is still barely 7mm (1/4”).Ultimately a happy ending though, as everything turned out ok after the modifications. Still working fine 8 months after the install. I don’t know if this problem was something specific to my bike (not likely), but someone without the same resources I have would have been in a bad situation. |
