07 fxd pigtail behind air sleaner

[hdforme62]

I installed stage 1 breather assy.today and while removing the old backing plate there was an extra plug that was capped off and anchored to the backside of the backing plate.Does anyone know for what applications this is used for on other models?

I tried to edit the title without much luck.Obviously it should read air
(C)leaner.

That is for the International bikes. They have a door that opens on the back of the air cleaner.

Makes sense.Goes along with their exhaust.
Thanks!

Just secure it out of the way where it wont burn or chafe anthing....

03 is right its for the a/c flapper on HDI models.

where is the air temp sensor located. Zippers says that their breather kit relocates it to a cooler place. Says by relocation of the sensor there is an increase in hp

that's what the plug is for is for.
We have a small trapdoor in the anterior/inferior part of the airbox, that partializes the intake hole in ts superior portion. It works with a stupid electromagnet and opens up as rev climb, exactly as the other stupid valve on one of the two exhaust does...
Hope this helps

hi everybody. I have FatBoy '07 and i just installed the K&N RK-3909 air cleaner. Since I live in Italy, the airbreather backplate has a flap that regulate the intake air (it's a solenoid, so it fully opens or partially closed - 2 only positions).
Afetr having installed the K&N I left unplugged the control of such a solenoid, therefore the "Engine" light is always on on the dashboard.

If I replug the connector (and hold the backplate) the light turns off. So it sounds as the loop of the circuit is under control of the electronics.

I have 2 choices:
1) take the solenoid out of the backplate, plug the connectore and hold it all somwhere (but this would mean to brake the backplate...)
2) shortcut the free-end plug by installing a resistors, but in this case I wonder to know the Ohm and Watt of it...

ANY CLUE?

I could use some help also. If anyone has a clue on how to "jump" the sensor...

Actually I removed the street legal muffler's fiberglass and decided to take out the stock filter backplate... hope it works fine...

modifying the engine for more airflow could mean that a retune is needed. But we Know nothing of the Brazilian HDs because of the mandated engine modifications.

vance& hines make a adaptor kit for the aircleaner and the active exhaust valve part no v31001 try that bro.

Hi,
looking into other forums and playing with multimeter in that electrical circuit, I set by myself an electric adapter to bypass the airintake flap coil, which if disconnected throws an error on the dashboard.
It works fine since last September. If anybody interested, let me know I'll give you more details. It's cheaper than V&H or any other solution on the market.
