08 trunk wiring schematic
Hey guys. I’m new to the forum. I did a search and could not find anything. My rear speakers weren’t working so after investigating I found that the whole wiring bundle on the left side was cut apparently from the hinge. There are 12 wires, multiple same color combination. I need help. Does anyone have a schematic or advice?? Thank you ahead of time.

According to our most accomplished Goldwing mechanic, Greg, you should buy a new subharness and just replace the one that is cut. If it was one or two wires, I would say repair them, but if most of the bundle is cut, I agree with Greg.
I had a problem with the right side harness, and only one wire was cut, but another was bared, and when they touched, my horn would blow. This happened every time I opened the trunk lid. I repaired the cut wire and wrapped the bared wire, before Greg mentioned that repairing these harnesses is futile and will just happen again. Next time, it will be a new subharness, and likely the other side as well just to get them out of the way for future problems.

Re: 08 trunk wiring schematic
Thank you for your advice. It just seems that it would be so easy to lengthen these wires and reroute. They are very easy to get to.
