Just bought a 22 Street Glide. Put a battery tender on and even after a few hours can’t get a green light. The tender I’m using is a normal 2 terminal tender but the bike has the 3 terminal pigtail. Do I need a Harley tender for the 3 terminals or what’s going on? Any advice would be great. Dealership wasn’t much help. Thanks

 

Should not be an issue, what is the tender light doing? If it solid red, it is still charging, if it is blinking red then it is not charging and the fuse in the fuse panel may need to be replaced.

Ignore the third connection, your tender will work just fine.

May take more than a few hours to bring the battery up to the float level.

 

Tender stays solid red. I’ll try it again when I get home. I appreciate it. I’ll let you know. Thank you

 

Battery is probably down quite a bit from sitting around at the dealers, give it 24 hours as most tenders only charge at 1.5 volts DC.

 

Check the inline fuse.
The 3rd prong is for a rapid charge connector that you must not have on your tender

 

My dealer threw in a 'free' 750mA Harley-Davidson Supersmart battery tender with the purchase of my 2022 Road King.

Just for info, the Harley charger doesn't have the third connection.. Only has the regular 2 pin SAE connector.

 

I think you mean 1.5 amps? Actually many are below that..

If the Tender is very low amp type it may not be able to charge the battery completely..

 

Yeah my bad, 1.5 amps, I think mine does .750 amps. Good catch - Thanks.

 

Yep, your third wire is for high amp fast charge situations. 5 amp chargers can heat up only one hot wire. Your battery has only two posts.
After my '22 purchase I found that the tender that I am using <1 amp took almost a couple of days before stating full charge, after that I get a full charge in just a few minutes after a long ride.

 

Solid red means that the battery is charging. It will take some time if the bike sat for a while. Should turn solid green once it is charged.
