Special Tools Required
Most of the installation of the Micro Harness Controller can be completed
with basic hand tools. However, a few special tools make the job much
easier:
x
A
heat gun
(such as the unit shown in Figure 1) is required to shrink
the heat shrink tubing onto the harness. The heat gun makes quick
work of shrinking the tubing, as it provides a broad, even source of
heat. No other means of shrinking the tubing is recommended.

A good-quality
wire-crimping tool
is also required. The “W” style
(shown in Figure 2) is available at
www.digikey.com
(Digikey part
number WM9999-ND).
x
The AMP style (shown in Figure 3), while considerably more
expensive, will produce better results. The AMP style is
recommended if you plan on wiring many bikes using the AMP
connectors included with the Electronic Harness Controller system.
