The wiring harness for the trike is set up with the tail lights on the fenders to function as tail lights and turn signals. A load equalizer is used to supply power to 2 small LED lights below the bumper that are tail/brake lights. I want to make the fender mounted lights function as tail/brake/signal lights.
The original Harley lights, like most bikes, use separate brake/turn signals. This would be similar to the set up on cars that have amber rear signals, except that the Harley only had one tail/brake light. To run trailer lights with these cars, a converter box is wired in that combines the brake and turn signal functions to operate on the same 1157 bulbs.
My thought is to get a converter box and wire it into the original rear harness. The LED load equalizer would be split off between the connection and the converter to power the 2 LED lights as they are set up now. After the converter I would have 4 wires to power the fender mounted lights that would be the same as a trailer harness.
White Ground
Brown Tail light
Yellow Left Turn/Brake
Green Right Turn/Brake
Any one have the expertise to tell me if this will work or not? If not, is there a way to make it work?
