CLAMP GAP NOTE: To prevent fogging be sure to not close the pointed end of the clamp together as this is where the hidden breather vents are
located that provide a constant air exchange.
3. Route Tach's wire harness lead under the dash for simplest and cleanest installation.
1980 to 2003 HARLEY-DAVIDSONS
NOTE: LED Control Box references are only relevant to 7-Color Tachometers. If you have a single color model you will only be concerned with the
wires exiting the Tachometer.
Making your wire connections as follows will not require the use of the Tach Adapter:
GREEN WIRE: Find the PINK wire from the factory wiring harness located under the speedometer (sometimes they have a plastic bullet
shaped end). Cut the plastic off and splice the PINK wire to the GREEN wire from the Tachometer.
BLUE/YELLOW & RED WIRES: Find the ORANGE wire under the dash and attach the Tach power wires BLUE & RED (incandescent) or
YELLOW & RED (single color LED Tachs) to it. On 7-Color LED Tachometers connect RED from the Tach and RED from the LED controller
box.
BLACK WIRE: Locate a suitable ground (usually a bare frame bolt) and attach the BLACK wires from the Tachometer and the LED
controller box (if equipped) using the ring connector.
7-COLOR TACHOMETERS ONLY
WHITE WIRE: White Connector from 7-Color Tach to WHITE Connector on the 7-Color LED Control Box
BLACK SWITCH: w/Red Button plugs into 7-Color LED Control Box
2004 - 2010 HARLEY-DAVIDSONS
ALL MODELS REQUIRE TACH ADAPTER
TACH ADAPTER: The 2004-2010 Harley Davidson will need to utilize the Baron Tach Adapter (BA-7315-50 which is included with your Tach
Kit).
1. Remove the seat & fuel tank per the factory service manual.
2. Remove the plastic wiring harness cover that runs the length of the backbone under the tank.
3. On the left side is the coil harness. Locate the following wires:
YELLOW w/BLUE Tracer, BLUE w/ORANGE Tracer, YELLOW w/GREEN Tracer. These will be used in later steps. NOTE:There are 2
wires you will be using that look VERY SIMILAR. Please pay attention to the ones you connect to, as the Tach will only work if the instructions
below are followed exactly.
WIRE THE TACHOMETER & ADAPTER AS FOLLOWS:
YELLOW WIRE: Use a Scotch-Loc to connect the YELLOW lead from the Tach Adapter to the YELLOW w/BLUE Tracer coil wire.
BLUE WIRE: Use a Scotch-Loc to connect the BLUE lead from the Tach Adapter to the BLUE w/ORANGE tracer coil wire.
GREEN WIRE: Connect the GREEN wire from the Tach adapter to the GREEN wire from the Tachometer with the included Red butt
connector. The GREEN wires ONLY connect to one another; DO NOT CONNECT them to any positive power source or you will burn the unit
out.
BLUE/YELLOW & RED WIRES: Find switched power from the bike (you can use the ORANGE wire from the bikes harness or the
YELLOW w/GREEN Tracer wire). Use a Scotch-Loc to connect either the BLUE & RED wires (incandescent Tach model), or the YELLOW &
RED wires (single-color LED Tach model) and splice them to the YELLOW w/GREEN Tracer wire on your harness. For 7-color LED Tachs,
use the RED wire from the Tach and the RED wire from the LED controller box and splice them to the YELLOW w/GREEN Tracer wire on
your harness.
BLACK WIRE: Attach BLACK wire from the Tachometer and LED Control Box on 7-Color Tachometers to a suitable ground (usually a bare
frame bolt). Use the Ring terminal (supplied).
7-COLOR TACHOMETERS ONLY
WHITE WIRE: White Connector from 7-Color Tach to WHITE Connector on the 7-Color LED Control Box
BLACK SWITCH: w/Red Button plugs into 7-Color LED Control Box
