Its not necessary to remove your spoiler. I installed this item on my 2002 goldwing today and when I tried to remove my spoiler, I discovered that the dealer, who had installed my spoiler when I bought the bike new, had stripped one of the 4 bolt heads that hold the spoiler to the trunk. So I couldn't remove the spoiler. I simply fished the harness through the trunk lid and spoiler body with a 16 guage wire with no problem at all! So not having to remove the spoiler eliminates one or two steps shown in this video. Also, the rear fender on my 2002 Goldwing had 5 bolts holding it, not 4. The 5th bolt was right in the middle under the license plate. Glad I didn't yank on the fender too hard after removing the 4 corner bolts and taking the time to figure out what was holding it up.

I order this light and I am watching the video before I start. I noticed that when you were testing the LH turn signal that the rh side stayed lit in red. When you were testing the RH turn signal there wasn't anything lit on the LH side. Is this normal or were you holding a brale lever when testing the LH side and that's why the RH side was lit also?

Looks like it DOES have a problem. At the very end of your video the left turn signal ran while the red running lights were still on on the right side which is how it is supposed to work. But when you turned on the right turn signal the left side red running lights did not come on. How did you fix the problem. BTW... I just ordered on for my 2012 today and will get it next week.

Bruce, I saw that after I completed the video and the install. I am pretty sure it had to do with all of the other crap the previous owner had installed. You saw the rats nest of wires behind the fender! I did not have a full day to go through a disconnect everything the previous owner had installed. I have this same unit on my 2012 and it works PERFECTLY.

cruisemansgarage I recently had one installed at the dealer. It has the same malfunction. I’m thinking it is possibly a quality control issue and not an installation issue.

I figured out what the deal is. It works fine IF you turn off the turn indicator by pressing in the switch BEFORE you flip the turn signal to the opposite direction. Example.... turn on the right turn signal. Cancel the turn manually by pressing in the switch or let it automatically cancel after so many seconds. THEN turn on the left signal and repeat procedure. NO PROBLEMS!!! BUT if you just flip the switch to the opposite direction you will NOT get the desired result.

I have a 2001. Ordering a spoiler with light and also want to switch that light out with this pathfinder. Currently I have the BACK OFF brake modulator installed. Will that module interfere at all with the brake light feature of this pathfinder?

HI Wing riders. We all love our Wings, this 2001 Gl1800 is the 5th Wing I've owned. If I can ask for help though. I have the Pathfinder LED drive lights (but my problem isn't with them on). My problem is I installed the Pathfinder Sequence LED spoiler light. wired it and installed it correctly and although the sequence portion works correctly, the drive light portion doesn't come on and keeps blowing my 15 amp fuse, killing my tail lights, instrument cluster, and Pathfinder drive lights. I put in a new fuse it blew again. Took the Sequence light out of the system and the fuses stopped blowing. I don't know if it's a defective LED Sequencer, or if it is drawing just enough off the system to overload the fuse. I really like the idea of having it in the system but I can go back to the original 3rd brake light. I am also wondering if I go with the LED tail lights it will lessen the burden on the system and stop blowing fuses. I would appreciate any thoughts on this. I did shoot SOCALMOTORS an email as well. Thank you much for any help, Gene

I Installed on my 2005 that also has a trailer wiring kit on it. Hooked it all up the same as this video and no brake light at all. When I let go of the brake handle the turns quickly light up both sides then off and the running light comes back on. When I bought GW has a modulator that flashes trunk brake lights back and forth then flash together then solid. Could that be why? Brake modulator still works. Any ideas why no brake light at spoiler? Because of the modulator I have not changed the brake bulbs to LED all still incandescent.

Did you cut the wires on the old spoiler to pull the wires through .
@cruisemansgarage
6 жыл бұрын
Yes. I forgot to mention that in the video. The OEM spoiler will have butt-style connectors that you can detach before pulling the wires through, but this aftermarket spoiler light did not have that so I had to cut the wires. This particular Goldwing had a Kuryakyn (I think) spoiler light with 5 wires. Your OEM light will probably only have 2 wires.

It is possible. I just looked at the Kury website and their LED looks similar. You should contact Kuryakyn and ask them if their spoiler light is the same fitment as a Honda OEM spoiler light.
