Audio 395 on Newer Harley with no Aux port

Post by Imskier2 »

So I have a friend that bought a 395, I was explaining to him how I hooked up my 590 to the Harley Limited to get sound. Thats when he told me the cradle cord only had 2 leads, power. No Audio he has to plug in rca type jack under a flap on bottom of zumo each time he puts it on or off the bike. My question is where to plug it into newer Harley with no Aux port. I installed an Aux port undre the fairing and had dealer turn it on with digital tech, will it work the same with 395?

I assumed that since the Infotainment system has BT, it would take an Aux input from BT while still using the Harley speakers.

If you read my original message, you will see that I was asking if that was what needed to be done fot the 395. Dave sorry I took so long to get back but that is exactly what he had to do. Install a cable into the existing harness where the CB was plugged in. (Remove dummy plugs and insert pins from new cable) Then had to have the dealer with the digital tech turn on an Aux port. And then place a rca type cord from that new cable out beyond the fairing and plug it into the 395 each time he mounts it. Now he has audio in his speakers or headset from the 395.
