In this video
I
will be installing
this pigtail
onto the battery
of the Can Am
so I can put it on a trickle charger
while its in storage or not being riddin
(intro music playing)
now to get access to the battery this trunk
the insert
needs to be removed
out of here
so we have four clips
that we need to remove on each corner of the trunk
insert
I don't have any special tools for this so I'm just going to use a screwdriver
slide that pin up
and then it should come right out
alright so pop this top cover off
so that just pops off
its got two
pieces that go into those rubber grommets
so now we should be able to
pull this
right out
to gain access to the battery
this is the battery down inside here
I want that pigtail that i am going to install on this battery
to be easily accessed
so
I don't know
where I am going to run it
way too many covers on this
(laughing) on this bike
ah
maybe I can run it out this way
now I don't know if this is going to be long enough
to do what I want with it
um
thinking
we're going to run it through the side here
ya that's what I am going to do
so I ran it through this side piece here
so I am running it right through here where the hose is
radiator hose
its going through there
through the frame
and then its going to end up, I'm going to zip tie it right here
so its
out of the way but
yet accessible
so when I need it it is there
so I am going to disconnect
the negative first
its a 10 mm screw
and then
disconnect the positive
now these pigtails are pretty self explanatory
you got black
tip is your negative
red tip is your positive
so we're just gonna basically
put this
right on top of the terminal
and put the bolt back in
its kind of a weird rubber boot
that really isn't doing anything
I don't even know why they put this on here
now the negative
is
going to go
on the negative terminal
I'll zip tie it right there
I'll put one more tie
right here on this
back side
just to make sure
it is good and it doesn't hit the spring
and last but not least
we'll zip tie it on the inside here
right up to this wire here
make sure it has plenty of clearance
and their we go
battery tender
harness is installed
negative to negative
positive to positive
runs through the side
zip tied there
and there it is
so now I can just
grab it
plug into it
if I need to use my air compressor
plug right into that
I'm good
the only thing that's left to do
is put the
trunk insert back on
get that in there
put your plastic clips back in
and put this piece
back in
