Default LED Mirrors (92068-08A) - Power Issue

Got these lights installed and wired up and went to test these. Stock blinkers work as usual but the mirror lights do not activate on either side. Tested with a volt meter from the battery to the stock harness, to the new Y Harness and all get power (as stated the stock blinkers still activate as usual when it's all hooked up).

I'll try to explain this next part to the best of my ability. When my buddy hooked a volt meter up to the section past the wire harness where the mirror blinkers plug in to the bottom portion of the Y Harness, there's no power going to it.

Surely I'm not the first person to have this problem...I hope.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

TwoThumbs

If you look at the above mentioned post in the OP thread you will see the harness completely wired. If you trace the wires from the mirrors to the first connection (where the gray and black wires meet in a connector) that is where I do not have power. Everything else is wired and receiving power to the stock blinkers as normal.

I know, you must have done something wrong.
I can't see your picture you posted, so I did the next best thing.

Where my pinky is is part of the Y Harness connector. Where my index finger is appears to be a circuit board wrapped in heat shrink. Near my wrist is one of the connectors used to connect the harness to the new lighted mirrors, which is where no power is reaching.

Like I posted before with everything plugged up the stock signals still work, but no power is going to mirrors. The link Ranger73 posted with instructions for Sportster install shows to follow Table 2 or 3 for wiring. My instructions say follow only Table 2.
