NOTE
This instruction sheet refers to service manual information. A
service manual for this year/model motorcycle is required for
this installation and is available from a Harley-Da vidson dealer .
Electrical Overload
It is possible to overload your vehicle's charging system
by adding too many electrical accessories. If the combined
electrical accessories operating at any one time consume
more electrical current than the vehicle's charging system
can produce, the electrical consumption can discharge
the battery and cause damage to the vehicle's electrical
system. See an authorized Harley-Davidson dealer for
advice about the amount of current consumed by additional electrical accessories or for necessary wiring
changes. (00211c)
When installing any electrical accessory, be certain not
to exceed the maximum amperage rating of the fuse or
circuit breaker protecting the affected circuit being modified. Exceeding the maximum amperage can lead to electrical failures, which could result in death or serious injury .
(00310a)
The Remote Control Transmitter in kits 91558-01A and 9156101 requires up to 0.5 Amps additional current from the electrical
