Don't use on a new HD
Product causes an error on 2026 Low Rider ST. Cleared diags, but error still comes up and horn stops working. Dealer recommended that I get another horn.

Hi Chris, we sorry to hear about your challenge. We have not heard anything about this through our customer support email. It sounds like your HD model may have a different connector plug. This is common with models of 2026. We actually designed one specifically for Indian motorcycles. Please email us the details of the installation challenge. Such as the error code, what dealer was installing, name address phone (tech name if you remember). We can then get to the bottom of the error and fix it for you! This is exactly what the Mini Banshee connectors are; Spade terminals (also called blade or Faston connectors), typically two separate push-on elbow or straight female spade terminals on the bike's wiring harness that connect to male spade tabs on the horn itself. This is the standard setup for Harley-Davidson Softail models, including the Low Rider (FXLRS/FXLRST) family. The 2025–2026 models follow the same design as recent M8 Softails (post-2018). Aftermarket "plug-and-play" horns for these bikes are designed to mate directly with the factory spade connections. Key Details: Horn terminals: Usually two male spade tabs (common sizes are 1/4" or 5/16" / 6.3 mm). Harness side: Matching female spade connectors (often with elbow/90-degree boots for clearance). Polarity generally doesn’t matter for the horn (it’s not sensitive), though one wire is typically hot (often yellow or similar) and the other ground. Installation is straightforward: unplug the two spades, mount the new horn (often with the stock bracket/nut), and push the connectors back on. Many replacement horns are true plug-and-play. Harley service info for horn kits explicitly refers to connecting “elbow terminals” or “male/female spade” connectors to the horn’s spade contacts.
