Has anyone used this method Twolane posted?  I've seen it posted umpteen times, but nobody responds on where best to find and access these connections in the inner fairing?

Can anyone please help?

The connection 2Lane printed is under the fairing cap where your igntion switch is.  Need to get the power to your driving light switch from the acc switch.

When you do this, you will have power to the passing light switch all the time (instead of just when the low beams are on).

Go to the switches (that 2LR shows in the schematic) in the fairing cap, locate the appropriate wires, then "rearrange" the yellow wire so it is connected to the orange/red wire from the accessory switch.  HTH

I don't get credit for the schematic.  Just reposting it to help.  Think Jim created it initially but not sure.  It is accurate though.  Work under the switches in the fairing cap.

Thanks guys - I see now. I was thinking I had to fish these wires out in the inner fairing and God only knows where in what loom they are. I know there is a trick to pulling the ignition switch, but once that is off, that cover will flip over so you can do this easy enough?  Thanks!

Get the ignition lock off.  You'll then see a nut beneath it.  That nut comes off too.  Then some screws on each side of the fairing cap.  That's it.

Thanks alot!  I was searching for the ignition switch removal trick and only saw the removal part. I saw that putting it back together was a bear for some.

Will this work for a 98 Road King? Does anyone know how much pawer two LED 30W Spot light will draw vs stock sealed beam fuses? Do I need to make any fuse rating updates? 15 amount accessory fuse increased to a 20? I don't know how much more the fuse size needs to be.
Thanks Lynn
