Fried something

Energy One
They're $585, for an extra $200 I could get the RIP kit, would it be worth just doing that? Granted once I figure out what the issue is. I'd hate to buy a new EHC only for it to get fried by faulty wiring.

On their website all they sell is the RIP kit, I didn't see just the EHC by itself.
Yes you want the RIP kit. Call Matt Moore at bigdog.net Email him those pics of what you have there. I don’t know if the EHC Wildsteedworx has will hookup to what you have. Thinking it has a completely different connection. I would definitely contact someone at BigDog before spending any money. They should be able to help you get it figured out.
 
Just now getting into the swing of things, I'm anxious to get back on the road. Does BDM still sell an original EHC, or should I go with a Wire plus, read that Jake helped someone with getting them one, or is RIP kit still the way to go?
 
So Curtis from WSW helped me with figuring out what kind of wiring I have on my K9. It's the PDM kit they used before going under. I have just purchased the Gen 2 RIP kit with the D-sub style connector.

It came with the power harness but I need just the backbone harness. Big Dog parts kingpin sells the backbone and power harness for $499 but I don't need the power harness.

Doesn't anyone know where I can find just the backbone harness by chance. I also plan on changing out the VR and Rotor and Stator as Curtis recommended. BigDog.Net and kingpin both have them in stock but I need that backbone harness first.

If Knothead doesn’t have it…, you are gonna have to bite the bullet & get them both from Donna @ HDM. At least you can put the power harness up for sale here & someone may need it. Or EBAY.

I may have to get both like you suggested, is Knothead a member on here? I seen some old posts about somebody willing to part with theirs as they had opted for a whole new wiring kit but still had their backbone harness.

I appreciate all the help, this forum has helped tremendously. I'm ready to get back on the road.
 
They're sold out on BDM, fuggg...Knothead has a harness on eBay, but it's for a chopper. Not sure what the difference would be for just the backbone harness, as I believe the only difference is the air ride. Which I believe has to be wired individually from the Gen 2 RIP kit I ordered. I got a 3 way switch I ordered for that.

I think the difference is the length of the harness.
