Handlebar Control Unit

The kit's "dash-mounted control switch", as the name implies, is

normally mounted on the dash of an automobile, but on the PC,

an ideal mounting location is on the right handlebar in the space

between the Run switch and the starter button. There are a

couple of square inches of empty, flat space there into which

the control switch easily fits.

Using clear silicon sealant, seal the back of the

switch box along the seams and around the wire hole

to help seal out moisture out of the switch. Keep the

sealant off of the removable backing for the adhesive.

Let the sealant cure before mounting the switch.

Place the template from the instruction sheet over the

mounting space on the Handle Upper Cover and

mark the plastic where the elongated hole needs to be

made to pass through the wiring bundle from the

control switch. You can either drill through the

plastic, or melt through with a soldering iron. After

the hole has been roughed out, clean it up with a file

or a Dremel tool. Make sure that there are no sharp

edges on the plastic. Pass the six wires from the

control switch through the hole in the Handle Upper Cover. Peel off the backing from the

mounting tape on the control switch, and carefully align the switch to the Handle Upper Cover

and press the control switch into place.

The wires may be secured to the inside surface of the

Handle Upper Cover either by gluing them, or using cable

ties with self-adhesive tie mounts. Take up the slack in the

wires, but do not cut off the wire ends, because these have

integral terminals which must be inserted into the

connector.

Insert the four colored wire terminals (red, brown, green,

yellow) into the supplied connector housing, following the

color order guide that is attached to the connector. Bundle

the excess wire and secure it with a small cable zip tie. The
