Just bought he new Garmin XT from Lamonster, can someone please tell me how to wire it in? Do I hook it up to the Battery or fuses? How do I run the wire and what do I need to remove? Tupperware.

There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

I wired mine to the “plug in” available for the CanAm Garmin Mount. Polarity was reversed, so be sure to check that. Check under CanAm 2020 RT Accessories, Garmin Mount, download installation instructions, describes plug in location...

CanAm website, look at 2020RT, then Accessories, then Garmin Mount, download installation instructions

It's under the right side panel. The long panel by your knee. The plug is end is small and fits into the black side panel under the one you remove. It's not attached to anything just rests in the black panel.
I cut the plug end off and attached longer leads to it and ran them up to the top cover by the windshield so I can hook it to the Garmin when I get it.

Have an issue with my Zumo on my 2020RTL not charging. Install by tech at Can Am shop, "suppose to be a plug and play"!! 590 Model Wit BRP mount and wire harness for the 2020RT. I can filly charge the unit with an AC plug in. New battery also.

Polarity was reversed on mine and many others. If that is the case with yours, Zumo is running on battery only. The Tech probably never checked it. That happened with mine.

Youtube video on XL install
I had the same issue with my new 2020 and with some help from Jetfixer, here on Spyder Lovers (see the link in the video), and some wiring help from Lamonster was able to (watch him) fix it. I created a little video to help others out with this same problem. I had wired it to the headlight breaker and while it worked, Lamonster said that was not 'optimal.' ("Bad" was the actual word.) He did the whole thing in about 5 minutes. It was impressive to watch. The video goes kind of quick to minimize upload/download time, but pause it as needed to read instructions. Note: the BRP accessory/GPS wiring is plugged in to the side of the bike, but goes NOWHERE. It's just a dead end plug. Lamonster removed that, snipped the end of it off, wired in the XT and voila!
