This afternoon I was installing my MotoDynamics integrated tail light and fender eliminator. Connected the main 3 wires (red, white, black) for the tail light, turned the bike on, everything working fine. Went in the house real quick, came back out, totally forgot about the sub-harness and connected the 2 remaining copper wires to the 2 stock connectors that I believe control the white plate light. Went and turned the bike on, while simultaneously looking up at the workbench and saw the sub-harness. Whoops.
Turned the bike off and connected everything properly, nothing works.
Unconnected and reconnected everything, nothing works.
Reconnected all stock equipment, nothing works.
So... did I just fry my electrical system? I claim no expertise in wiring. The only other thing I can think of is a bad connection further down the line, but that seems unlikely as I didn't touch anything else, and the integrated tail light worked just fine initially before I made the incorrect connection. Anyone have any suggestions at this point?
