Are these for my tail light?

Now...who can tell me what these three wires are for coming off my OEM harness towards the battery area?

I have a 2009 FE570 but it came without head or taillight. These look like they could be taillight plugs but where would the brake switch be tied in?

However, when I start my bike up and test with a test light or voltmeter I get no power from either of the colored wires. I can't imagine they are simply there for show. It would be great if they were for my rear taillight. But I need someone to tell me how I can get them to make power to them.

To Make life simple.

Your bike will be missing some add in harness's as if it was not equipped with factory lights like EU models have to ride on the road, then KTM did not put the harness and the switches, lights and other stuff. To make those wires work, you will require the other harness's. You will also require the headlight switch, turn signal switch, flasher and other stuff.

Now to make your lights work as we mentioned in your prior post.

You will need to find a 12v source in or around you fuse box or what have you. Then you need to feed it to a fuse if it isn't already a fused circuit. Then the live circuit goes to your hydraulic brake switch on either of the two wires it has. The other wire will need to go to the brake light wire. You will need to run the ground wire to a viable ground.

If you want the tail light to work when the bike starts, then you need to find a circuit that is live only when the bike is running. Take that circuit and feed it to the other wire that is left at the rear fender.

As for the wires that you are holding in your hand, it will not be as simple as you think to make power to these wires unless you have a GOOD grasp of electrical wiring of a motorcycle. You will need to complete circuits that are not completed in many different locations in the harness, such as connectors that are not connected to anything. This will be the hard way and will not make any difference than you making a new clean circuit to supply your needs. The extra weight of the little bit of wire you run will not be noticeable what so ever as you are adding lights and parts already.

BTW: It looks like the red circuit goes to your handlebar switch and the yellow supplies something else as a turn signal or something like that.
 
Ok thanks for the drawing. I guess to sum it up, it's not worth buying the crap to get those three wires in my hand to work.

I will likely buy the handlebar switch however so I can get the headlight to work on-off.

Not sure about your year, but mine does not have a off on the headlight. It is always on and only high and low beam on switch. daytime running light as well.
