Any suggestions on LED American flag install on 2022 F3L?

[ImaCaMan]

I just brought home my new 2022 F3L Special Series today. I installed one of these flags on my 2018 RTL several years ago with no problem. However, the F3 install video must be for older models and is nothing like what I have when trying to access the electrical harness area under the rear storage case. I don't want to go removing a bunch of bolts willy nilly and mess something up. I have looked online and can't find anything. Any suggestions?

By far the easiest way is to remove the two screws holding the license plate light on. You can pull out enough wire to tap into them there.

Thanks, I spoke with a guy from Tricled and he said I could tap into the tail lights, Orange and black wires. I was able to access that from removing the rear cargo case. Worked fine for two days and then doing a walk around before a ride, I noticed that it was off and so were my tail lights. I immediately detached the LED flag, but my tail lights no longer come on. Do you think that I blew a fuse? I wouldn’t imagine the LED flag draws much current but I have no idea what else it could be. I have subsequently read that attaching a diode to the flag’s powerline will fix the problem, but I have to find out how to get my tail lights back on.

Got it fixed; was a blown fuse.

Hook it to the license plate lights. Mine been hooked up that’s way for years. And I put. Remote dimmer on it.

Me, too. Tag light is perfect for that!

Sounds like a great answer for my light strip. Thanks.
