INSTALLATION
WARNING
To prevent accidental vehicle start-up, which could cause
death or serious injury, disconnect negative (-) battery
cable before proceeding. (00048a)
1. Refer to the Owner's Manual and follow the instructions
given to remove the seat and disconnect the negative (-)
battery cable. Retain all seat mounting hardware.
WARNING
When servicing the fuel system, do not smoke or allow
open flame or sparks in the vicinity. Gasoline is extremely
flammable and highly explosive, which could result in death
or serious injury. (00330a)
Analog Fuel Gauge Removal
NOTE
The fuel gauge wires are routed through a tube in the fuel tank,
and are secured by a clip at the bottom of the tank and, on
some models, a clamp on the frame. Open the clip and clamp
as needed, and be sure there is enough slack in the wires to
be able to lift out the gauge.
1. At the bottom left side of the fuel tank, bend back the
flexible clip slightly to free the fuel gauge conduit. Open
the harness clamp on the frame if necessary to free the
conduit. Gently pull on the conduit to draw the Multilock
connector [117] out of the tunnel.
2. See Figure 3. Depress the pin on the socket terminal side
of the connector, and pull apart the pin and socket halves.
3. Use a pick (Snap-On TT600-3) to remove the terminals,
or clip off the wires.
4. For Carbureted Models: See Figure 3. Remove the fuel
gauge by firmly grasping and carefully pulling up (Do not
twist) just far enough to free the gauge from the fuel tank.
Disconnect the two sending unit connectors. Feed the
conduit and two wires up through the tube while removing
the gauge. Remove and discard the fuel gauge. For
Fuel-Injected Models: See Figure 3. Remove the fuel
gauge by firmly grasping and carefully pulling up (Do not
twist) on the gauge to free it from the fuel tank. Feed the
conduit and three wires up through the tube while removing
the gauge. Remove and discard the fuel gauge.
LED Gauge Installation
1. See Figure 3. Assemble the new O-ring (2) to the LED fuel
gauge (1) from the kit.

Orange wire to "12V O"1.
Gray wire to "3V GR"2.
Black wire to "GND BK"3.
Yellow/white wire to "Y/W"4.
Figure 1. Wire Connections
2. Obtain the wiring harness from the kit. See Figure 1. Fasten
the Orange wire (1) ring terminal to the gauge connection
marked "12V" and "O" with one of the Phillips-head screws
and star washers.
3. Fasten the Black wire (3) ring terminal to the connection
point marked "GND" and "BK", and the Yellow/ White wire
(4) ring terminal to the connection marked "Y/W".
4. For 2001-2003 fuel-injected models, the Gray wire (2)
will not be used. Cut the wire short and tape over the end
with electrical tape. The Phillips-head screw can be
installed back into the hole marked "3V" and "GR". For
2004 and later carbureted models, the Gray wire (2) will
not be used. Cut the wire short and tape over the end with
electrical tape. The Phillips-head screw can be installed
back into the hole marked "3V" and "GR". For 2004 and
later fuel-injected models, fasten the Gray wire (2) ring
terminal to the gauge connection marked "3V" and "GR".
For ALL models: Tighten all four Phillips-head screws to
0.4–0.9 N·m (4–7 in-lbs).
5. While carefully lowering the fuel gauge, feed the wire
harness down into the drain tube until the long Gray wire
(B) and three short (Orange, Black, Yellow/White) wires
exit the hole at the bottom of the fuel tank. Gently pull the
wires (to remove slack) while installing the gauge to the
fuel tank. Do not twist the gauge during installation. Hold
the gauge firmly and press downward until it snaps into
place.
NOTE
DO NOT attempt to connect the Gray wire socket terminal
into the 4-place pin housing.

12. At the bottom left side of the fuel tank, mate the completed
pin housing to the socket housing [117B] disconnected in
Step 3. Feed the connector into the tunnel, capturing the
conduit in the flexible clip at the bottom of the tank and the
clamp on the frame (if so equipped).
13. The OE gauge harness did not have the Gray wire (with
socket terminal) that is included in the kit wiring harness:
For 2001-2003 fuel-injected models, the Gray wire will not
be used. Cut the wire short and tape over the end with
electrical tape.
For 2004 and later carbureted models, the Gray wire will
not be used. Cut the wire short and tape over the end with
electrical tape.
For 2004 and later fuel-injected models, the Gray wire
will replace the Yellow/White wire found in cavity 9 of the
speedometer connector [39B] (Touring or Softail models) or
instrument assembly connector [20] (Dyna) later in the
installation (see Step 15).
14. Connect the long Gray wire in the following manner:
a. Install the Gray wire into Cavity 3 of the fuel gauge
socket housing [117B] on the motorcycle main harness.
b. Route the Gray wire through the tunnel under the fuel
tank, then up the front of the tank.
c. Follow the instructions in the Service Manual to gain
access to the speedometer connector [39B] (Touring or
Softail) or instrument connector [20] (Dyna).

d. Locate the Yellow/White wire in Cavity 9 of the
connector, and remove the wire and terminal from the
connector. Refer to the PACKARD ELECTRICAL
CONNECTORS section in the Service Manual. Following
removal, either cut the Yellow/ White wire short and tape
over the end with electrical tape, or fold the wire back
on itself and tape over the end.
e. Route the Gray wire to the connector and install into the
now-empty Cavity 9. Re-install the rear cover of the
speedometer or instrument assembly connector as
required. See the Service Manual.
f. Install tape or wire ties along the path of the gray wire
to secure it. Proceed to Step 16.
15. At the bottom left side of the fuel tank, mate the completed
pin connector to the socket housing [117B] previously
disconnected. Feed the connector into the tunnel, capturing
the conduit in the flexible clip at the bottom of the fuel tank
and the clamp on the frame (if so equipped).
16. Connect battery cables, negative (-) cable first.
17. Refer to the Owner's Manual and follow the instructions
given to re-attach the negative battery cable and install the
seat.
WARNING
After installing seat, pull upward on seat to be sure it is
locked in position. While riding, a loose seat can shift
causing loss of control, which could result in death or
serious injury. (00070b)
NOTE
If the fuel gauge does not indicate the proper fuel level after
installing this kit, check the connectors, then follow the
troubleshooting procedures in the Service Manual.
