You could just connect up the pigtail that came with it to the battery and bypass the canbus or do what I did which is to replace the accessory socket on the bike with a Powerlet one connected direct to the battery. That also gets rid of the 5 amp limitation on the canbus fed socket so you can run heated gear or a compressor. Just a thought.
