Harley Wiring Extension / Removing Wires From Harness
Vložit
- čas přidán 10. 09. 2024
- After I bought higher handlebars for my Sportster 883, I learned that my wiring was too short. I needed to extend the wires another 8" with a kit I bought.
I couldn't find a video to help me disconnect the OEM wires from the harness! So, here's my humble attempt to help.
You just saved tons of people from headaches, broke parts, and god knows whatever else will happen when trying to figure out what you have done. Thank you!!
You are an American hero buddy! Out here doing the Lord’s work!
1:58 into your video is what I wasn't aware of. I've been screwing with a similar under seat plug for over a week. Once you showed how the bottom of that connector comes apart, I was finally able to get the wire out of the plug. Thank you very much.
I'm HONORED that you commented!!! My friends and I swear by your safety vids. Thank you, sir!
2 years later, man, THANK YOU!
Well you saved my husband a ton of headaches and myself cause it’s my bike he is working on. He would rather be doing anything else than putting on my new handlebars. Thank you very much
Duuuuude I’ve done my bars before and this was the worst part. I’m currently doing them again and this tip, my god, you are awesome. Thank you!
OMG, this video is so helpful. I'm trying to make internal wiring for my sportster, and this info is just what I need. Thanks a lot, friend!
Thanks for this video Jason. I have 14” ape hangers and an extension kit for my sportster 1200 on the way to me so I will definitely be using your method here!
I’ve been looking for this exact info for over 8 hours today. Great work !
Thankyou for your video explaining how to remove those wires. Like yourself I couldn't find any video how to do this and have spent 2 days scratching my head on how it comes apart. Thankyou again.
Great video thanks. Take a couple of photos of the wires and their locations before unplugging and disconnecting them.
You are the only one out of thousands of videos that actually explained and showed this. I Did It!!!! I could give you a big smooch right now. Thank you thank you sir! 😘👏👏🙌🤘
I also looked and looked and never found anything like this. Glad to help!!
Thanks from Australia , I have the same extention kit and was lost until i saw this .
thanks bro de-wiring is the most frustration thing
Holy crap man! I spent like 4 hours trying to figure out how that works I had my tank off handle bars off everything and I could not figure out how those wires pop off and I couldn’t find anything on that. Until I finally found your vid! I’m going to try again and replace my handle bars!
I tried this for 3 hours the other way with the holes. Your video is the only way that worked for me. Thank you so much
This is The stuff youtube was made for thank you, and ride safe.
I want to try and extend the wires on my new Rebel 1100 for the same reason; higher bars.
Your video will help me a lot if I run into the same type of connections.
Thanks a bunch.
DUDE! Thanks for doing this video. I needed a video like this because, as. you said, no one has done a vid like this. Great work man!
Thank you, you saved me a ton of time and explained it very well..
I appreciate you...I've been doing a handlebar swap on my 2008 Nightster and couldn't figure it out. thanks!
THANK YOU! I struggled for hours before I found your video.
I'm really surprised there's still not another video that explains this!!!
Holy shit bro bless your soul. These connectors had me STRESSED trying to swap my T bars. Thank you so much brother I appreciate it more than you know! 🍻
I'm gonna try thanks. I've been looking all over for help and you're the only one I saw explaining this
Thanks you!
I'm Japanese！
Thanks to you, I was able to remove the coupler!!!
Thank you so much！！！
There is a tool for removal of the wire connector pins from Molex connectors but they are rather expensive. I use a #1 paper clip in the small hole just above the connector pin. Then you will hear a click and the pin will come right out. Nice video. Thanks.
Best explanation on this i have seen yet...thanks.
Thank you, figuring those connections out without ruining them is a pain, thanks for sharing
@jason byers -- You are my freakin` HERO! I have been dealing with faulty wiring on my 08 FXSTC. This video is a troubleshooting masterpiece. THANK YOU for sharing your knowledge with the rest of the two wheeled world. Amen, brother.
You are the man. Thank you for this video. Just helped me big time.
Been tryin to figure this out for two days! Thank you!!!
This was so helpful. I thought they wanted me to stick the extension in the plug it’s self. I was so confused as to why they would do that because it was so bulky. Never crossed my mind to take it apart lol
I know others who have cut the wires and that would have been disastrous for me! Glad it helped.
Thanks you for this. Was not familiar with this plug type. God Bless!
Thank you, your video saved me money and time. Great help.
SHIT! I got so frustrated I took my harness to harley. They wouldnt show or tell me how to do it but were more than happy to charge me $70.00 to do
it. That was 2 days ago before I found your video. Now im trying to get my harness though my new 12" meat hook apes.
That was me, bro...hopefully we can all keep learning together!!
Hey brother. just want to give you big ups on the video very well done and very useful! Thanks!
You sir are the MAN! thanks
you my friend are a legend i never would’ve figured this out
Yes! Thanks! No idea how I would have figured this out alone.
Thank you, thank you I was going crazy trying to figure it out life saver.
Excellent, but you don't need to disassemble the back of the connector, just lift the latch and insert a thin paper clip into the corresponding hole, and that's it, the wire is free. We have an extension brand in Brazil called Pandilla Cables, their kits include a tool and an instruction manual.
Thanks for the tip!!
Not all heroes wear capes!
This helped me today!!!! Thanks, from High Plains Moto - Kansas
Glad it's still helping folks!!
You learn new things everyday, thank you for sharing 🤙🏼👍🏼
You just helped me on my 08 electraglide
Genius!
Thanks for making this video.
Well that was just perfect, seen many videos doh this was the info I needed, thank you Sir !
Glad I could help!! Ride safe!
Just what I was lookin for. Thanks man
Legend mate. Im doing the exact same thing and i thought there is no way no one will have a video on youtube. I was wrong. Thank you mate saves me cutting wires 😂
Great job man and thanks for showing that on film!
Thank you soooo much. Nobody shows it like you!!
My guy, you just saved me so much time and so many headaches. Thank you so much!
Bro this is awesome still can’t find this anywhere else thank you!
Thank you brother! Absolute Legend!
Thanks a ton buddy, God bless you!
Literally a life saver
God bless you man!
It's in the repair manual. There is actually special tool called "molex pin release tool" that you stick in that little hole on top of the pin hole in the front. But tiny screwdriver works too, or paper clip.
Thank you so friggin much man! This helped me big time!
Thank you my friend.
Thank you so much man , exactly what I needed
Thank you Jason
Thanks brother, great video helped out a ton.
Great video simple, detailed, and right to the point.
Definitely helping me! Appreciate it! 🤜🏻🤛🏻
And off course I’ve found your video right at the moment I bolted and screwed my fucking Dyna back together after fiddling with this Deutsch connector for two evenings in a row. Lol! Thanks buddy. Gonna try it again soon and finally change my handlebars.
You are the man! Thanks!
Thanks for that my friend that's really helped me out for one. UK Sportster owner.
Absolutely awesome
Dude god bless brother. Thank you so much.
Fantastic video Jason, it was exactly the connector I have been working on, saved me a lot of headaches!
Greatly appreciate the info....
Unreal! Thanks so much!
I am so glad that I found your video I’ve been trying to get my wires out of these similar plugs in your video for probably an hour now did not find anything telling me about that white piece inside being a locking mechanism. Lol I watched your video watched it again as I did it on my plug wire came right out. I just wanted to tell you thank you so much for making the video because who knows how long it would’ve taken me to figure that out. Lol definitely gonna share this knowledge with other people
The best ! Thank you very very much!
Glad I could help!!
Thank you great presentation
big help bra thanks for the very helpful info
Your the man thanks a ton!!!

This video is gold. Thanks man. Just the information I needed.
thanks J.B.
Thank you!
Very nice! Thanks
Really big help thank you !
Thank you.
This is a Deutsch connector, there is specific tooling to assemble and disassemble one of them. Of course a small pick or flat blade driver will get the job done.
god bless ya Jason.
Omg
Thank you going through it right now
Thank you very much help
This was exactly what I needed. Thank you brother.
Thank you for the info
Thanks Brother

you mentioned the top with the little hole. well if you stick something in that small hole, it will release the wire
