My 07 road glide has a problem with the volume. It was shooting up to full blast at random times now it does it less but I can't turn the volume up just down. I have the following codes...

B2008 Handlebar switch shorted low
B2009 Handlebar switch stuck or open

What would your next step be? I just got this bike it does have chrome switched installed.

I think I figured it out. After visiting the local dealership the service dept told me I needed a new audio switch. They didn't have one in stock so I came home. I started to take the controls apart and found that the wires were pinched against the bars. I realigned the wires with the dimple and all appears to be good now. I just bought this bike last week sol I was unsure what had been done to it in the past.

What exactly does this error code mean:

B2008 Handlebar switch shorted low

Does it mean my low beam switch has shorted out??????

Find it a lot easier to pull the HK out and sell it on Ebay. 800-1000 bucks. Spend that money at biketronics and your problems are gone, and you get a way better stereo in the end. Just my opinion

Anyway to diagnose a radio on a 2000 FLHTC? I had the radio and amp and volume control on the hadle bars replaced in 08 because of a short in the system. It was replaced unde extended warranty thru the dealer. It was a direct OEM replacement supposedly but I think it was actually a refurbished radio and amp. Anyway the new symptoms are that the front and back left sid espeaker is cutting off and on I get a lot of satic when hitting bumps in road. Any thoughts would be appreciated.
Thanks,
