You have an 05 which means sooner or later it will fail, so go a head and do the mod now regardless of what you find.

I did the rear buss connector fix. Solder all groups, taped everything... I ran it for about 1/2 hour, everything was good. Then all of a sudden it dies. Blows the 30 amp every time I put one in. Ripped the plastic back off and looks like all the wires (red, black) from about the shifter to the front buss connector is fried. Any ideas why this happened?? Would it be better to just run all new wires to rear buss?

are you sure you didn't mix up some of the wires?? go back and double check. the only way that the wires would have cooked is one is crossed with the wrong grouping or you pinched one somewhere.

yes, that was the first thing that i checked. i didnt see where anything was pinched and all the wires were in their own color group. i ordered another wiring harness, so i am going to replace the whole thing.

sorry to hear, ive never seen anyone else have an issue like that

ok here is how you do the Buss Connector fix, i think the factory fixed it from 06 on so it should only be for the 05s

First off you need disconect the battery. then remove the rear rack and fender so you can get to the fuel tank

This is the wiring harness your looking for

You need to take the tape off the get to the little white connector, which is the white thing in the pic

After you locate and take the tape off of the connector you can start to remove the wires
There are 6 to 8 Black with a yellow stripe wires, remove them

After removing the black/yellow ones then remove the 4 Brown ones and then the 4 white ones. once there all removed from the connector you can start to wire the like colors into groups like this

so you should have 6 or 8 Black/Yellow wires in one group. then 4 Brown wires in a group. then the 4 White wires in a group. now that there all seperated you can use one wire nut for each group. after your done wire nuting i usually put DI-Electric grease in the wire nuts once that is done you can start to tape the whole wiring harness back up and put your fenders and rack back on

i think thats it if im missing somthing tell me and i will add it
Thanks

Hey I got a brute force 750 2006 with the buss connector cut out already but the guy had it wired so the only way you could turn the power off was pulling the main fuse. i un did it all and grouped the wires by color and got nothing tried a few diffrent variations still nothing but the thing is i have 6 brown wires 4 black and yellow 4 black and 4 white. please help.
