Step 3 - Mount the Connector for Remote

Step 4 - Install the Wiring

TO PREVENT SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH FROM EXPLOSION:

• Do NOT drill into gas tank.

• Verify the area is clear behind the mounting location before drilling.

• After determining the mounting location for the remote socket, drill

three holes and install. (see figure 3)

• Once the remote socket is mounted, route the two bullet terminal

wires back to where the control box will be mounted. Splice the end
of the red wire to a key controlled accessory circuit of the ATV (use
the provided wire splice). Using a test light, locate a suitable wire from
the ATV key switch. The wire should only have power when the key is
in the “ON” position.

NOTE: If installing both switches, both red wires MUST be

spliced to a key controlled accessory circuit of the ATV as
described above.

Place the supplied terminal boots on wires before securing to the control
box. All wires must be attached to the control box before mounting the
control box to the ATV.

• Connect one terminal (marked “M+” ) of control box to terminal positive

(+) of the motor with red cable.

• Connect one terminal (marked “M-” ) of control box to terminal negative

(-) of the motor with black cable.

• Connect one terminal (marked “B+” ) of control box to terminal positive

(+) of the motor with red cable.

• Connect one terminal (marked “B-” ) of control box to terminal negative

(-) of the motor with black cable.

• If installing both the handle bar switch and the remote socket, first

attach the terminals on the green and black remote socket wires into
the control box (green to green, black to black), second connect the
red cable of remote socket to the terminal (marked “B+” ) of the control
box, or connect the red cable of remote socket to the key.
