Riding in this morning I noticed something odd with my bike. 2012 street glide with abs. Every time I started from a stop, as soon as I got to 10 mph, the light on my speedometer would cut out. As soon as I got to 3000 rpm's, the light on the tach would cut out. Both gauges would continue working but with out the light. When I would come to a stop, both lights would come back on and the check engine light would illuminate for about 5 seconds and shut off. Happened this exact sequence time and time again. I think I know what I am doing this week end. Any ideas where to start?

 

Gremlins, change bell and find somebody that knows how to pull codes.

 

I know how to pull codes, but I am at work right now. Was just wondering if anyone might have an idea or had this issue them selves.
The Gremlin bell is brand new given to me last winter from a patient of mine.

 

Wish I could be more help, I'm a transmission guy that rides an Evo, codes and lights on the dash are foreign to me. Try posting in the tech forums maybe you'll get a better result.

 

Okay, I noticed that when the rpms are brought up, the voltage gauge spikes. Does that mean that the voltage regulator is not working properly. There are several codes but I have not written them down yet.

 

It was the v. regulator, in case someone else has this issue

 

Thx for the follow up

 

Pretty cool of you to post the fix, especially for someone from Boston... Ha ha!!!

 

Mike must be from New York

 

You know I was just messing with you right? But thanks for the laugh. I actually worked NYC about 30 years ago for a year and couldn't wait to leave!!! I am just not a big city guy.
