Thank you. I installed some small front indicators under the handlebar controls. Had to take both Controls apart to integrate the wiring. When putting it back together I left a too big gap between brake lever and brake switch, brake lights permanent on. Thanks to your detailed video it was just one look and a quick fix.
Thank you, my rear brake lights on my 2006 RK were staying on and heating up, I worked the front brake lever and the brake lights started operating as they should. I am going to call the HD dealer and order another switch and or rubber cover. Life is good on my RK.
The book says to use a cardboard shim to protect the switch when re assembling. I had this issue after installing LSS shorty levers. I just put a piece of thick tape on the lever tang as a temporary fix. That temporary fix has been in place over a year ! My switch is intact though.
I'm having that problem with my Dyna Switchback but it's fine when I first start riding the bike but after about 60 Miles brake light comes on. Melting everything inside break light housing. I had to resort to using a bulb that won't work for running lights to keep from getting everything so hot.
2013 is going to be different, because around that time they changed a lot of the electronics and went to CAN-BUS. I want to say the switch is built in to a circuit board on the later models, but I could be mistaken
Thanks helped a lot to convince my father that the Problem is on the handle 😀 greetings from germany

Man, and I’m always the first to say in these videos “check your manual” 🤣 lessons learned 🤦🏼♂️ my fix is still holding up well though
Brandon, hats off to you for fixing it right. That’s a lot of work pulling the connectors out of the frame.

That was great information buddy thanks 👍🏼
I replaced my switch with HD replacement still same.issue... repla ed with the clutch safet switch and its worked flawles
Would you have a part number. And would that part number fit a 2013 street bob

Would putting dielectric grease on the switch rubber help extend the life of it as preventative maintenance do you think?
