Wiring for front flush mounts?

Hey everyone,
I'm new to the mod world and I don't know much. I just installed my proton flush mounts no problem....probably the easiest thing ever. But there is no harness attached with my lights. It's just 2 free wires. When looking at the harness from the bike itself, there are 3 prongs. I can't find a wiring diagram anywhere and I don't know how to hook up 2 wires to 3 prongs. Help?

i dont know if its too late but leave the harness but cut after it towards the light, not bike. You will be left with the harness then 3 wires going out. You would then do cut and splice black to black, red to blue and then yellow or orange to green or brown depending on which side your doing.

Black - black
red - blue
yellow - brown or green (flashing LED)
or
orange - brown or green (normal turn flicker)

Hope this helps

I think Zigs has returned the Protons.

However, I have a problem with my protons. After a while of riding (40 mins) my front proton lights begin to blink like hazard lights. When I press my turn signal then blink slower. My rear Comp Werks FE lights are not affected.

I wrote to Proton and this is what they said:

So the rear signals don’t have running lights? Sometimes LED running lights, if not designed correctly, will leak power into the turn signal circuit which can cause them to flash.

If the rear signals are not running lights, then most likely the problem is the flasher relay. LED’s require less power to run, so there can be a voltage that is enough to turn on the LED’s but not enough to turn a bulb on – so even though you could plug the OEM bulbs to the wires and they act normally, there may still be a voltage there, just not enough to turn on the bulb but enough to turn on the LED’s.

The best solution would be to unplug the OEM flasher relay and replace it with an electronic flasher. You could try removing the flushmounts and connect the blink wire to the positive terminal on your battery and the black wire to ground – they should flash. When you connect the red wire to positive and black to ground the running light should come on (and only the running light). If the blinker comes on, the problem is with the flushmounts. If the blinker doesn’t come on, the problem would be with the wiring – most likely the flasher relay.

Hope this helps.

Thanks

Seems like a nice guy. We conversed for about 2/3 more emails.

Has anyone else had this problem? Has anyone had to fiddle with their relay? Where is the relay anyway? :confused:

I followed the wiring from the Proton packaging. I also played around with the normal blink and fast blink. Nothing is touching because I wrapped the connections with tape. I also soldered the connections. I was going to cut and rewire for the hell of it before doing the relay thing. Just not sure what's wrong.

So the rumble concept flush mounts have a black wire and a yellow wire. the stock ones have black, green, and blue wires. Does anyone know how to wire these together?
Your help would be greatly appreciated

Make sure you read the information, I use rumble concepts and they clearly state that they require a wiring harness and flasher relay to:
1. Allow you to hook up lights without having to splice/cut and keep factory plugs.
2. Keep flash rate at normal rate.

Black = Ground
Green = Flash
Blue w/red stripe = Power/Running Light

If you purchased the wiring adapters/harness that Rumble Concepts sell.. it's simple plug and play. If not its black to black and yellow to green.

Rumble Concepts Flushmounts do not have a wire for running lights, it could be done but would take some wiring work... if you are not comfortable cutting the ends off of your flasher wires to your stock harness, you can always cut the leads off of the RC wires and feed the wires into the back ends of your stock 3 Prong Plugs and tape it up really good..

If you want a clean install and don't want to cut the wires, order these if you haven't already....[ame="http://www.amazon.com/Rumble-Concept-Signal-Adapter-Plugs/dp/B006575FBQ"]http://www.amazon.com/Rumble-Concept-Signal-Adapter-Plugs/dp/B006575FBQ[/ame]

I would order this unless you want hyper flash flushmounts as well: http://www.ebay.com/itm/YAMAHA-RUMBLE-CONCEPTS-EASY-PLUG-FLASH-RELAY-2261337-/261176819537?hash=item3ccf59ff51&item=261176819537&pt=Motorcycles_Parts_Accessories&vxp=mtr#ht_641wt_904
