piaa lights wiring

[Paul466]

So I got my "plug&play" kit today. This sucks! its a generic harness with +&- battery connectors! Where is my plug????? anyways there is the positive & negative wires + thin white wire that im not sure where it goes. its just cut and stripped. Anyone???THX!

I faffed around with mine only to find that the plug is in the bike connector already

Is that the generic accessory kit from Yamaha/Amazon or the real plug and play kit from Canada/Europe?

Paul,
Not to worry, just hook the positive and negative to the battery and the long white wire goes to a switched source such as the tail light wire. Kit should come with a tap connector. Its pretty simple really. One place to tap the tail light wire is under the passenger seat beneath the plastic cover. The wire under there to look for is Blue.


Hope it helps

THANKS for the help. Called piaa tday. Guy was confused by my question. Decided to do it right and not use the batt terminals instead aux light plug has a dummy plug in it! Got some pin connectors that will slip in there. Only concern I have is the gauge of power wires vs. the pin. Is it stepping it down to much? Will it fry the plug? On the other hand relay wire is lot thinner than others

You can pick up the proper plug from easternbeaver.com If its at least 18ga you'll be fine.

Paul, the original Euro lights were a pair of 55w Halogen sucking more juice the these measly LED's. You may want a relay as many do.
