Default Throttle By Wire Plug Diagram

Does anyone have a wiring diagram for the TBW connector in the bars?
I am working on internal wiring and new bars, stupid me tried to pull the connector through the bars and needless to say it broke off in the bars. Now I have got all that extra stuff out of the bars (the broke conector) I need to solder my wires togehter before my next attempt. The throttle itself has a red, white and black wire on each side of the connector, the other pigtail ( leading to the fairing) has six other wires of different colors.
I need to know which wires to solder together.

Wrecks SUCK!
sometimes fixing it back like it was seems a whole lot easier, but not near as cool!!!

Thanks,
ms_weasel

I hope your not trying to extend the wiring for the Throttle By Wire. If you are the throttle won't work. If you want extended wiring you have to buy a whole setup from HD thats resistance calibrated for the longer wires so the TBW will work.

Not true, throttle works fine just don't mix up the wires.

I was told the same thing by a rep at Zippers about not cutting the wires from the throttle. You've done this yourself without any problem?

A lot of people have cut the TBW and spliced new extensions. Someone sells an extension kit to do so. I didnt do it on mine, but I did wrap the connector with electrical tape so it would not come apart. I think if I were having to extend the wires, I would just buy the SE TBW replacement.
