How to wire a driver power seat

Hi, I came across 2000 Harley Davidson seats for my truck, all the seats fit great except there are different plugs under my seat now than there are on the H-D driver seat. Would anyone know where i can find some power seat schematics so I can get it working? Thanks

My orig. seat had two plugs a gray and a yellow, the HD seat has the gray but instead of yellow has a different black one that doesnt fit, I know a guy that can wire it up, but he needs the schematics for the power seat ***.... I cant find it anywhere...

Just get the correct plug for it and wire it in... Should just be power + ground going into the plug

Do you think that would be it, i know the yellow one goes the the seat belt, I think it pulls it tight if u get in an accident. I know when i disconected the passenger side from the yellow clip the guys at Ford said the airbag wont go off, so I was thinking the same thing for my side too? What do ya think? I was hoping cuttin and connecting to the black one would work, i just didnt want to mess it up.

Well when I installed power seats in my non-power seat optioned truck all I did was use the original plug for the seat. Took it out of the other truck. It was a simple hook up of power + ground... the other plug still went in the same.

Don't understand why they are different, the diagram for the 2003 shows a connector for the Supercab and one for all others ( SCrew and Std ).

You have a SuperCab and the 2000 HD was a SuperCab if memory serves me correctly ( 2001 was the HD Screw w/ the Super Charger ).

Take a look at the test chart below, see if the connector shape in the lower right hand corner looks like the different connectors you have ( C352 vs. C3016 )

2000 HD was a SuperCab... The '01 was a supercrew, but did not get supercharged until 2002 I believe.

Thanks, cab type was the big part of the question.
Don't know why std and SCrew had 1 connector, and SCab had another.
