Default passing/fog lights??

So the lights R&L side of my headlight on the 2014 ultra classic only come on when I press the button the one all the way to the left of all the aux switches but once I release the button they go off? is there any trick or maybe the button is bad doesn't click on and then click off? any help would be great

If you can't get them to stay on, have the dealership check them. If the green light is on, they should be on.

Sounds like your switch is bad. Like mentioned above you should have a green light on the switch showing there is power to them "on".

My only other thought is maybe the high beams are on and when to push that button you can get them on momentarily? As they go out when you turn the high beams on.

Good luck and keep us posted when you find the problem.

The switch should stick down, and the green light on top of the switch should be lit, unless your brights are on. If the switch comes back up after you push it, might be a bad switch. If your brights are on, the passing lights won't come on, unless you have the dealer set them up that way.

Should be an easy enough fix, switch shouldn't be too much $.

mine was like that to but they covered it with the warranty. I bought another one for $22 tho when I added the fog lights that go on the lowers and wired them to it instead of the crappy switch they send with them. it's not a big deal. good luck.
