I am trying to hook up my Garmin to my RTL , and I am not having any luck with the wiring diagrams being too small and unreadable . Does any one have a suggestion as to where to hook up ? I thought of the driver hand heating circuit , as it doesn't get much use here in Florida , But I can't find what color it is . Any help appreciated .:clap::clap:
You should be able to tap switched power from the fuse box.

Why not just pull the GPS function from your Smartphone?
The bike is designed to do that! nojoke

Under the side panel is a factory connection for the Garmin. See instructions/Brp.com
Pretty easy. I can’t recall which side, but the process is the same; wind deflector, mirror, 3 screws, pull panel. Then 2 screws, 1 pushpin, open saddlebag, remove 3 screws. Remove lower side panel. Connection is there.
I understand completely: I'm just about in the same boat also... :shocked:Quote:

Not sure the 2018s have that connection any more.Quote:

Bob, yank the sidecovers off and take a look!
You can find switched power in the position light. Remove right headlight. The smaller of 2 connections powers a position light. Tap into that.
