Thanks Chris. I have all the supplies ready for the module to start selling. This was great and I am now able to hook up my Muth Mirror turn signal wires. I've installed and stored the wires waiting for the distribution block. I will store the excess Wago Connectors in one of the black boxes you suggested when rewiring your bike originally. Then I'll be good to go for the future. Lucked out having got with the Pathfinder products thanks to your suggestions on accessories two years ago. I like the weatherproof unit and the sizing. Well done, as always.
I ordered and received the Power Accessory Hub and it is all that Chris describes, and more. I looked at Show Chrome and Electrical Connection and others for this type of additive device. I was happy to see that Pathfinder/SocalMotoGear produced this alternative. I have their harness and have three of their other lighting products installed on my 19 GW DCT. I installed it this week and used Chris' install video here and others he produced to install the Show Chrome unit. I used the Wago connectors on the ends of the Pathfinder Hub trigger wires and used a black box to hide and secure them with out of site. His instructions were perfect and I am a happy camper. I used the Wago connector to do the final wiring for my Muth Mirrors which work perfectly. I now have the ability to add other electronics to the bike as my Pathfinder Harness is full. Highly recommend this accessory. Thank you Cruisman for your videos and these accessory installl productions.
@@curtisbull1583 you only need one. There are 4 or more all good products. Cruiseman has done videos on the install of Show Chrome and Pathfinder. The latter I found met my needs. Now that Cruiseman is sponsored by Show Chrome he will likely favor his older footage when installing their products. though he changed to Pathfinder I believe.
Hi Chris - Just thought I'd mention to you that I installed this Power Accessory Hub a couple days ago. Very simple and straightforward thanks to your video. I already have a number of Pathfinder products so this made alot of sense. BTW, sorry about your accident. My bike looks exactly like yours so I feel bad about what you are dealing with. While I'm typing let me take a moment to thank you for all your help and instructions. I watch everything you post and enjoy them. Plus, several years ago I purchased your video's and they have saved me a ton of $$$. Again, I'm grateful. This is just a quick message to say "Thank You!"
Thanks Cruiseman - I am ordering and installing for "future" because every time I look at making an additions to my '20 DCT this is the best and easiest connection for multiple products not necessarily from the same vendor/maker.
Ive been looking forward to this video, Chris. Good job! I have lots of accessories (lighted or otherwise powered) installed by the dealer and I've been waiting for this block to come out to clean up all the extra wiring and protect y the can bus electrical system. All of my accessories are either OEM or Pathfinder, which is quality stuff. Thanks again!
I didn't realize this. But used a isolation relay to add my trailer lights. I recently bought a late model Toyota and am planning on installing a trailer hitch. It also requires an isolation relay. Learned all about them from your videos. Thanks buddy.
My bike already had a Electrical Connection trailer isolator. I used the trailer outputs to power a trunk mounted Goldstrike Tourblade light. Used posi-taps to tap the circuits downstream of the isolator. These Wago lever nuts appear to be a way cooler and safer way to share output circuits. Thanks Chris!
Chris - I just picked up my 2023 GL1800D. Your videos are great! I ordered the PAH60GW power distribution module and a pair of duplex USB outlets w/ voltmeter. I'll let you know if there are any significant deviations from your installation videos. Thanks for taking the time to demonstrate what you've learned via hard knocks. Jay
Thank you for sharing I just purchased this and I am planning on installing the rear LED brake running lights with turn signals at the lower saddlebag area
Dang, you make it look so easy I am tempted to add lights to my 2018 non-tour using this product instead of letting the dealer do it. Have the Pathfinder fog lights and cowl lights in my cart and just waiting until I can add the power hub and the new Saddlebag LED lights. Also planning on adding the Muth Signal Mirrors.
Do the work yourself. Don't pay the dealer. I have added just about every light you can to that bike myself. It is easy and straight forward. Just take your time.
Too bad I just got the showchrome isolator kit. Fortunately, I haven't installed it yet. This product seems to be much more user-friendly for the novice electrician as myself. Lol. It's on back order until May.
Hey Chris! Is this what I need to connect a trailer to my 23 goldwing ? Meaning, I can add this and then connect my trailer connector to those outputs? Also do the outputs do the same as the inputs like the turn signal outputs still flash ?
My question is: you recommend to use wago 222 connectors but now they have a 221 which is clear and smaller. Is there any issues with using the 221 connectors.
Kind of wish your video showed where exactly each of those little wires from all the sources that go into the WAGOs came from. I know you SAID what each one was, but exactly WHERE did you get them and make the cuts. Sorry. Just want to make sure before I get to snipping! lol
Good evening were you able to use your Cowl Lights, LED Rotor Cover and Engine Lights with your Pathfinder L.E.D Power Accessory Hub. If so did you use Goldstrike 48000 plug n play connector?
hello, on peut connecter trois accessoires sur un plug and play, il me reste deux places et je dois monter un feu stop sequential a led. dois-je forcement acheter ce boitier ou mon plug and play suffit ? merci
Hello Cruiseman, I was wondering if you wired your trailer harness directly to the pathfinder power accessory hub and if so is there a wiring diagram for doing that? I would like to do that with my pathfinder power hub without using another isolation bus. thanks for all your work.
I did. It will be different for every trailer based on their wiring scheme. If you can get the wiring color codes for your trailer (run, brake, left turn, right turn, ground, etc.) from your trailer manufacturer, you just match those up to the correct terminals on the Pathfinder.
So according to this, the CAN buss is breaking out of the wiring harness to operate that isolation device. That is the break out wires are not 12v run, brake, left, and right? Now how do you strobe your brake light?
Looks clean and simple. I have the Kisan Tail Blazer brake light modulator - do the saddlebag harnesses interface with Kisan harnesses electrically and how badly do they all compete for space in that tight area?
Wondering if your battery tender should be connected directly to the battery or this hub? Connecting it to the hub reduces the number of items on the battery.
Hello cruiseman, i already bought the four accessory connector from goldstrike. Which one would I need and can incorporate the four accessory connector?
Hi Chris - Hope you are well and riding. Love your channel. So I have a trailer coming and plan to wire a seperate harness from my Pathfinder LED power accessory hub to run my trailer lighting. Is this going to work for me or do I need to get something else that I probably won’t have room for under my seat. 😁
Hi Chris - I've recently bought a 2021 non tour Gold Wing, that I'm gradually apparently turning into a tour model. I've installed the color matched trunk. But man there is a lack of lighting on the back of this thing. I want to install a high mount stop/turn light on the trunk, but I'm not crazy about the Pathfinder spoiler light, but I love the turn signals that mount at the bottom of the saddle bags. Okay so here's my question can the Gold Strike light be powered with this Power Accessory Hub? And in the example of the saddle bag turn signals, can't you just get the type of connector that is on the light wiring to put on the PAH? Hope I'm making sense. I used to make molex plugs for changing parts in furnaces with universal replacement parts, so I could easily connect. I'd like to be able to add more lights, but only want to have to install one accessory wiring device.
Cruiseman, 2 questions. I bought your maintenance video s I 2020/21. I have no idea where to locate them . Can you help please. Secondly I’ve just watched mr whites channel. Is this the same system he installed on his 23 goldwing?
Question, I have the trailblazer harness plugged into the bike on both sides when I plug this harness in can I plug it in on the backside so that all the brake lights will pulsate or should I plug it in on the front side of the harness or it just operates? Thank you Cruise man
These ist also a new version for the 2021 US model. I don't know, what they changed with the 2021; gut i've been told, it only affects the US version, not the Europeen once....... Maybe you could find out, what changed?
I think there was a change to the circuitry for the brake light. This only affects the 2021 Goldwings. Honda made some changes to the voltage of the 2021 taillights.
Hi Chris, great video! Can't wait to get my hands on one of these! Question....can you connect the PFLED G184XP harness INLINE with the PAH60GW harness to add the plug-n-play connectors for additional PFLED accessories that can be installed later? If not, I guess I'll be cutting off the plug-n-play connectors from other PFLED products and running the wires into the WAGO connectors :)
You should be able to connect inline, but a better solution would to be to buy the PAH60GX (without the harness) and use your existing harness to connect the PAH60, then, remove ALL accessories from the G184XP, cut off the connectors and wire them into the PAH60 using the WAGO connectors.
"Cruiseman" I have a question for you. I have just received the PathfinderLED Power Hub. I have a Rivco hitch w/ a Kuryakyn Relay assy for the trailer lights. Would you recommend eliminating that relay and connect harness to hub? Or is that relay required for the trailer lights operation? I do like this new power hub. A very well constructed unit.
Hmmmmm, looking for this for a Honda Africa Twin but it doesn't have the Saddlebag connectors. Wondering whether Pathfinder is planning to release these for any other bikes. Also, realistically, how many lights can you hook up to the device?
Yes, there is a universal model available PAH60UN. As for how many lights, as ling as you don’t exceed the amperage limits, as many as you want. A typical LED will only pull a couple of amps, if that.
Chris, I'm about to install the Pathfinder Power Accessory Hub in my new 2021 GW Tour DCT. 2 questions: 1) Is it Ok to remove the fuses from my two heated gear wiring harnesses if I connect them to the Pathfinder Hub? 2) I When connecting the Scosche Battery Jumper and SAE trickle charger adapter, do you recommend connecting that to the Pathfinder Hub or directly to the battery? I'd prefer to the hub to reduce the clutter under the left side cover. Thanks for all the great vids--really enjoy the high quality production values--Phil
Phillip, (1) you could remove the fuses, but no real need to, it just provides double protection. (2) The SCOSCHE battery jumper harness should be wired directly to the battery, not to the Power Accessory Hub.
My L.I. Honda Mechanic Kept the Show Chrome Box In. PATHFINDER Dist. Power Hub with the WAGO clips (would need 12 in a row)Not waterproof) (We live Northeast and close to water- Too Damp here. Got Pathfinder Lights Front and Rear . Talk to Your Mechanic first if you already have a show chrome box.(now I got to sell This Pathfinder Power Dist. Hub And Wago clips)
I have a big issue with this video mainly because of the order you are doing things. You should disconnect your battery ground and hot as instructed but the battery ground should be the last thing you connect. All connections should be connected completely before this step and your video clearly does not show that. In my opinion your video should be corrected. Your video is showing a unsafe process. I have watched many of your videos and this one is so wrong.
@@azmotorcop The HOT circuit (always on) is 20a and the ACC (switched) is 8a. If your controls have switches, you could run them off of the HOT circuit.
