It's the top of the plu, outside the actual port that is bigger. Like a muffin. The part in the paper is small but the top is much bigger (boy that's a fem analogy)

I think if you found the one with the rubber cap, that's probably it. The one I found really isn't under the seat it hangs down by the right side fuse box.

Ok. The plug I found is directly under the seat kind of buried at the bottom of the square opening there between the frame rails. It had a rubber plug in it. It was not dangling down the side, so I think this should be the one.

By the way, I suspect the rumors of the 09 HD's being relased today on their web site is true as I cannot access it- HD's server is probably overwhelmed...

Well Bros- I put most of my bike back together. I am still waiting on the brakeline... but with everything back together I tried to start it up- no go. It won't start.
I have not put the nacelle or headlight back one, so not sure if that may be the issue. When I turn on the power, Get no error messages, and the speedo shows mileage and such. The normal lights seem to work per normal, except the oil lamp stays lit. can't remember if it always did that and turns off after starting or not...
Anyway, the brake light works when I push the rear brake pedal (front lever does not engage light (is that because there is no brakeline in the master cylinder?) Also, turn signals do not work- front ones stay lit and rear ones are out. Flipping blinker switches does nothing. I am not sure if its because I have the passing lamp kit and with the nacelle on the switches are still not connected because they are in the nacelle which is still not on.
When I switch the bike to run, I hear the little whine, but push start button and nothing- dead silence... so- what is the verdict? blown fuse(s) or worse? Is there a possibility my soldering in the handlebars is bad? or, is it that stupid 12v thing I also have plugged into the accessory port under the seat?
I am open to any ideas... Thanks.

The directionals are hooked into the security system some how. Do you have the alarm/fob/security dealio on your bike?

I do. I tested the key fob, and the alarm seems to activate and deactive as usual. When activated, it chirps and then the red key light in speedo blinks, when I deactivate, it chirps and then the red key light goes away...

One friend says that it could be the bike detects no headlight or nacelle switches and therefore won't start and to also check fuses.
I called the dealer who says it can easily be a pinched wire in the handlebars somewhere and to check for that....
This reminds me of an episode of American Chopper, except starring me... I can hear the announcer, setting up the premise for the beginning of the show...
Will RedDenver find out why his bike won't start in time? Will Goodrich ship him the custom brake line he needs by Friday?
Or....
Will his vacation plans come to a screeching halt?...
Find out on the next episode of RIDERREPORT CHOPPERS.. the Internet Edition...
