    Default Installing heated grips

    I will be installing heated grips on my Freewheeler before winter hits here.

    Has anyone on here done it, or at least know where the plug is located.

    I have done a few sets on the fairing equipped models (Ultra Limited, Tri Glide, etc.), so I'm sure that I can install them on my Freewheeler. I'm just trying plan ahead and how much needs to be disassembled to find the power plug.

    Thanks!

    I installed a set of Contoured Chrome Heated grips on the wife's 2015. Unlike the touring models with fairing, the Freewheelers require a Electrical Connection Update Kit, 69201599A for 2020 model year.

    https://www.harley-davidson.com/us/e...it/p/69201599A

    If I remember correctly the connection from left side to right side will need to be pulled through the handle bar as well.

    Thanks for the information. I haven't even purchased the grips yet. I'll probably be getting them within the next few weeks. I'll post information here when I do install them.

    I believe you will have to run the wires of the left grip on the outside of the handlebar.

    kwkride, I return home tomorrow and will get eyes back on the wife's Freewheeler and update you on the install.

    There are other ways to get the power for your grips vs using the accessory harness that HD sells. Under the left side of the tank, tucked up is a plug assembly for passing lights (which ironically HD does not list any that fit the Freewheeler), if you never plan on installing passing lights you could use the power there.

    Looking over the wife’s bike, as I had previously thought and now confirmed both looking at the bike as well as the electrical diagrams, the wiring for the left to right is within the handlebars and does not need to be external wired from left to right. As for using the power I mentioned that is located under the left side of the tank that is typically for the passing lamps, yes it can be done but would require making a wire harness (cutting the wiring supplied with the grips and acquiring the correct plug. It can be done but much easier if you acquire the aux harness. https://www.harley-davidson.com/us/e...kit/p/69200722

    How do you take the chrome cover off to get at the handlebar clamps? (I don’t have the service manual yet)

    There is a black plastic trim piece that wraps around the fork lock. Use a plastic pry tool and pop it off, if you have long hex bits you can reach thru the holes to loosen the clamps, (if you remove I believe 2 screws you can remove the entire chrome cover) making it easier than reaching thru the holes. I hope this makes sense 4 you

    If your referring to the clamp for adjusting the handlebars, you do not need to remove the chrome cover. Simply pop the black cover that surrounds the lock, it pops off very easily, and under that you will see two holes that expose two Allen head bolts that can be loosened for handle bar adjustments

    I'm assuming that I'll need to get complete access to them to run the wires for the heated grips. I'll be installing them this weekend, so I'll be sure to post pics for future use.

    Gotcha, after removing the black trim insert around the lock you will see the screws that hold the Chrome Riser Cover on. 2 screws and remove

    Well I completed my 1,000 miles service today and installed the heated grips.

    Unfortunately, they're not working. They are connected to 12v switched power and aren't doing anything.

    I pulled the connector off of the end of the right hand grip and there is power at that point, so I'm assuming that everything must be hooked up correctly.

    If I don't come up with anything else, I'll have to return them for another set. :-(

    Got the problem solved!

    One of the extensions that came with the wiring set, crossed the leads.

    Fixed that and now they’re working fine.
