Would someone please post a picture of the dash switch wiring for a 72 FLH. I have the wiring diagram but I'm not sure if I have the cables on the correct terminals. Also, where does the flasher for the turn indicators mount? Thanks.

 

your 5 oclock term is 12 volts in - ignition is at 11 oclock - do you have the correct 5 terminal switch or a 6

if you get the 5 oclock hooked with jumpers and they work turning the switch twice and it has power both times - the rest is lights - speedo - tail - headlights - stop light and the dash bulbs

the flasher is in the nacelle wire tie it to the grouping of wires - you could get a socket for it but they always fall out - from vibes

 

Thanks for the note. I have the 5 terminal switch. Looks like my ignition (orange wire) is at the 7 o'clock terminal.

 

orange is a 12 volt key on feed to most things directional brake light sort of thing

 

Thanks. I moved everything clockwise one post and it looks like everything works now. Even got the engine to fire on starter fluid after a long year trying to put this thing together.

 

ask away the guys all help out in the this section and will give you the correct info

 

Anyone have a clear copy of 72 FLH? Im rewiring the entire bike. ripped everything out starting fresh with all new soldered connections. Thanks Fellas!

 

Take the one in the factory book to staples - blow it up to a poster size 2 X 3 feet - wall mart sells cheap posters put it in that frame

to one up and use it as garage art - color pencil all the wiring with its correct colors

 

...and definitely do as John suggested on enlarging and coloring in the wiring diagram. Makes it so much easier to re-wire
