    Default where are the switched 12v connectors on a 2021 RT Limited?

    I have a 2021 RT Limited and I want to add my GPS(I am old school and have a garmin 590). I checked the wiring diagram and found 2-12V Switched connectors. They are GPS and DC1+/- . There are no indications on where they are located in the front of the bike. Anyone know their locations?

    From what I've read about 2020 RT owners who've installed a GPS, there is the standard GPS connection beneath the seat on the right side. The polarity is allegedly reversed so you have to make the appropriate switch at the connection.

    otherwise be a vulgar brawl.

    GPS plug. It's on the right side plugged into a dummy plug. With panels off the right side look behind the frunk about 6" . Some have reported that the polarity on the wiring is reversed. If you search for GPS installation on a 2020 someone posted pics.

    Search for "RT 2020 panel removal".
    Or see my post on Facebook "Can Am Spyder RT Lovers" under Richard Stebbins.
    Besides the GPS connection there's another switched connection in the frunk. Remove the liner then the battery cover. the 2 wires are tucked in just above the battery.

    Just a quick note: on my 2020RT the wires were correct polarity. Blue +12 Black ground

    Tough and time consuming part is removing right side panels for the first time
