    Re: LED front turn signal/running lights.

    Ruckus:

    OK, so I need 2 Eclipz Modules and 2 LEQ's? Is that right? I wire the LED's through the module and the blue power wires through the LEQ's?

    George, i'm going to respond to this but once as clearly as possible because there seems to be some confusion here and hopefully others will support what i say Hmm

    • The suggested module by royale5 is a pair for the LH & RH Frt LED light strips. As stated earlier, be sure your new LED's don't draw more than 300mA ... i doubt that this will be a problem... chk your vendor specs
    • Based on the photos of the module i see 3-wires (Blk, Red, Org) that i assume are the inputs and 2-wires (Blk, Red) that are the outputs that will connect to the new LED strips. The Inputs will connect to the existing Warrior wiring (chk vendor instructions)
      • Brown/Chocolate=LH T/S, Blue=Running Light, Black=Grnd
      • Green=RH T/S, Blue=Running Light, Black=Grnd

    For starters you'll need at least 1-LEQ as i stated earlier .... This device does not, I REPEAT, does not connect to the Blue running light circuit. The COD is an entirely different issue so set that aside.

    • The LEQ (3-wire device) must be connected in parallel with the T/S circuit wiring. Doesn't matter where. I disclosed my methodology earlier in the links Wink
      • The Kuryakyn 4810 has 3-wires. 1-Blk & 2-Purple
        • Blk to Warrior Blk
        • Purple to Warrior Brown
        • Purple to Warrior Green
      • If this doesn't correct the factory flash rate add another 4810 or any equivalent LEQ on the market. It's possible to source a single adjustable LEQ from other vendors i suspect for more $'s ... your choice.

    The COD will require an Active or Passive device as already stated earlier and i will not repeat myself except for the hard wire connections

    • No matter what you choose, it will have 2-wires only & is a parallel connection
      • Connect 1-wire to the Warrior Blue running light wire & 1-wire to the Warrior Blk Grnd wire located in several places on the bike as stated earlier

    Disclaimer: Be advised that i have never personally used this Eclipze Module but would have if it was available 5-yrs ago in lieu of my Kuryakn 2372 mod. I suggest you use some minature wire nuts and or jumpers to temporarily make your connections before fully committed!

    Good Luck

    Don't feel bad as i didn't either when i made the plunge to the rear Led's on my bike back in late '04'. When i did the frt's i used a HD dual filament Deuce bullet light in fear of the COD or solenoid syndrome. It took me a couple of years to go full Led's so you are much more advanced than i was.

    At the Rumble in the Redwoods 2007, the 1st morning out several members helped me push start my bike because of the flashing speedo light which is directly related to the COD Embarrassed

    At the risk of being ridiculed, what in hell is a COD?

    Re: LED front turn signal/running lights.

    Can I buy the resistor locally? Is there any special characteristics to it? Or just a plain old resistor? Thanks.

    Re: LED front turn signal/running lights.

    Hey Steve, I'm picking the bike up and heading to Orlando to the bike races with Shawnzilla tonight (IF I get the bike in time) and gonna ride with him tomorrow. Sunday would be cool though! I live in Port Richey, NW of Tampa near the Suncoast Pkwy.
