2016 Polaris Switchback Pro S 800
I have a 2016 Switchback Pro S 800. Dealer gave me Polaris part # 2878780 for the RCA power plug. Everything I have searched seems to indicate that this is the correct plug.

So I install and when I dig out the factory plug out of the bag under the steering bar, it seems to be that both connectors are female. I'm like WTF? I dug all through the bag to make sure I didn't miss another one. The only plug I found close is even labeled "RCA ACC PWR", but a female connector.

Anyone know what is going on and how to fix?

Starting to look like the correct harness is Polaris part # 2411708...still verifying though. Trying to find a visual of the connector
 
This is what you need . I don't have a part number

Update and final post on this...

The kit connector was installed backwards!

I tried to remove by compressing the barb but it was near impossible. Luckily it pulled out fairly easy with needle nose pliers. Before I reinstalled the wires into the other end, I check the plastic connector and it went right on after I reversed it. I then pushed terminals back in and plugged it together.

All this aggravation from a bad day at the Chinese factory lol
