- Today I will be showing you how to install the electrical relay on your Kawasaki Vulcan S step-by-step. This is a very easy installation and only requires a few basic hand tools. You will need to install the electrical relay on the Vulcan S if you want to install the 12 volt adapter, extra bar lights, or gear indicator. This is not an expensive product from Kawasaki and it is very easy to do at home, so don't waste your money at the dealership on this one!
►Tools you need for this job:
Rachet wrench
10 mm socket
11mm socket
Small ratchet extension bar
3mm Allen key or hex key

Motoblade, again you explain a process of doing a project mod on the motorcycle very easy. Your method was simple and completely understood! Thanks for not complicating it with any "fru-fru" words or actions. If I need a process explained, I know I'll be looking to you for the best help I can find to get a problem solved!👍🤓🏍️😁 Doug
Thanks Doug! Glad you liked it!
Great, easy instructions. It seems that they should ask $25 more for the bike new and include at least the 12 volt charger plug-in and relay from the factory since 99% of riders install it after the purchase.
The bike is already set up for these items. Oh well. I guess these little jobs help us to learn about our bikes more. Thanks for the walk through.
You're very welcome! Glad it was helpful. I agree - this basic stuff should just be standard on bikes now.
very helpful man. thanks!
1:20 bolt is 10mm (not 11) -- at least in my 2017 Vulcan S. Thanks for the walkthrough!
Hi. Do you have a link so I can buy that exact led flasher module online?
You didnt explain what the relay does or any switches that you use on dash etc.
@@davidcarvolth7685 the relay is a required piece of equipment if you intend to install the 12-volt plug-in accessory or you want to install the gear position indicator (older versions of the Vulcan S don’t have it built into the dash, it was an add-on option).
Excellent video.Clear, Concise, brilliant close-ups 10 out if 10
Thank you! Glad you found it useful :)
I added the relay this afternoon. Your instructions were right on point. Thanks!
You're welcome! Glad I could help!
Thanks from Spain, easily done thanks to you.
You're welcome! Glad I could help!
Found it, thank you so much, very informative.
You're welcome! Glad I could help!
Thanks for the tools list in description!

Great Video. This might be a little off topic, but what exactly does the Relay do? I googled this question relative to the Vulcan S and did not get an answer. I want to add this power adapter and eventually an upgraded tail light that allows one to delete the stock plastic fender extender and the rear turn signals.
When reading about that modification, it noted a relay was needed so the new integrated turn signal will flash at the correct speed. Will this one relay serve both modifications? I know zero about electrical, so any information would be appreciated.
The relay should put power to other circuits only when ignition is on, rather than a straight draw from battery that would otherwise always be on. For new tail lights, if you are going with LEDs, you need to replace the flasher relay with one that functions for LEDs. LEDs are lower wattage so existing flasher relay does not work properly - you will get "hyper flash" if you use LED signals and stock flasher relay.
Do you have any video showing where the ending terminals for the acessories are?
Thanks for the information video. Helped me a lot
Udo K. You're welcome! Thanks for watching!
ha ha is this all fingers and thumbs or are hand tools not his "bag"?
Thanks :)
You're welcome
Where did you get the relay? Where do connect the 12v plug? Thanks for the video and sharing.
Nathanael García Muro to connect the 12 volt plug, watch the video I did on that installation. I show you how to do that in a separate video. I ordered the relay online from kawasaki.
MOTOBLADE don’t you have the link of that video at hand? I don’t find it at all. Thanks.
Nathanael García Muro wow, you're right. Something happened to that video! I'm going to have to fix that. Should be on my channel. Will work on that!
Seems like a waste of time and money. . It serves no purpose. I've never had to add a relay to install a usb charger just a fuse even to add lights
sid sid The relay is required by kawasaki if you're going to install the gear indicator. That's it's main purpose. As far as time and money, it's like 10 bucks and took maybe 5 minutes to install. Not a waste at all.
