Sorry just looked and I do not have my cables.
I called barnettt who used to make them for big dog and gave them my year and model. They were able to pull the specs and I ordered the new cables from them

Old post but you’ve helped me out a lot lol I got bike running and all controls working it ran for few minutes and cut off on me that day I tried crank it back on wouldn’t so I assumed the cam sensor was bad ordered new and didn’t touch it til new one came in but possibly wrong one the ignition module wouldn’t flicker when hitting start but it was cranking still so I stuck old on back on just to make sure light would flicker when hitting start and now have old one on now I hit start light flickers it cranks but won’t come on at all Is it possible cam sensor wasn’t problem something else went out or new one just isn’t correct one had shop in town order a cross over one from harley bc they said they couldn’t find the original for me and I had no luck online looking
I’m just fed up with the thing haven’t got ride much I have more time working on it since I bought it lol

The cam sensor we sent you is correct.
"Won't come on at all" what exactly do you mean by that?
Have you checked for spark at the plugs?
With everything the bike has been put through it could very possibly be that the ignition module software has been corrupted.
If your getting the ignition module LED flickering but no spark at the plugs then you need to put a meter on the yellow signal wire to the coil to see if it is fluctuating while you are turning the bike over. If it is not fluctuating, steady at roughly 12 volts, but your getting the LED on the ignition module then the ignition module is the culprit.

Check for spark but also check to make sure it’s getting fuel.

May want to pull the air filter and check the carb to see if it’s getting fuel to the motor.

I will agree with kaptain amerika i also think its the cam sensor...ive runned into this 2 times cause a bike would run then quit...both bikes i took off the ehc and put new kits in them and one wouldnt do nothing and the other left my shop and died 2 miles down the rode....luckily i had some new cam sensor at the time and it fixed both of them...i do think this might be ur case...i dont think thunderheart is making them anymore...i was at a bike rally last year in graham kentucky in june and he was talking to me that he was going to stop making them and the power modules...but there is other cam sensor options out there...but if u havent yet i woukd take the heat shield off ur bike and put pipe wrap on it and put ur heat shield back on cuase the heat off the pipes is what usually gets them...to much heat in the nose cone

Idk if someone reprograms them or not...im sure someone on here knows if they can...ive personally never had any problems with the ignition modules...i know ultima , s&s and a few other makes a programmable cam sensor thats a all in one deal to do away with the power module all together...

Oh okay may have to look into one those if I can’t find one or someone who re programs them but looks like may be something along those lines now with what kaptain amerika said

If yours is the stock sensor they are not programmable

I am wondering if the timing could be off?
Did you say you have already replaced the cam sensor ? Did you go with a stock big dog sensor ?

Good Job Man. Always like to hear how a BD owner got their bike up.
I would advise against the nose cone ignition modules though.
Far easier and safer to go with the Dynatek 2000p remote module and just match the wires under the seat.
