Default Neutral Switch and PSR Journey Clutch Lever

I have a 2018 ultra classic, and the neutral switch has been giving me trouble. Won't start in gear with clutch lever pulled in.
I have searched and read lots of threads and read about a tsb on this very subject.
I have a set of PSR Journey adjustable levers, and the neutral switch worked fine with them for a while, then stopped working. I took the PSR lever off and pushed the button for the switch several times and then put the PSR lever back on and it worked for a few weeks then stopped again. It has done this twice, each time I made it work again by just pushing the button in a few times without the lever. Yesterday I put my stock lever back on and it started working.
I really don't think it is the PSR lever causing this, but do any of you have the PSR levers that work fine with the neutral switch?
I want to take it in and have it looked at but since it is working now I am not sure what they will say. It is most definitely repeatable, but not on demand.

Thanks!

Mine has worked fine. I got it near the end of September 2019 and have almost 5k miles with it. Mind you I rarely start in gear, but when I do it works. My setting is on 3.

Glad to hear that I really like the PSR levers. Hopefully they will change the switch under warranty for me.

Put the stock levers back on before going in for warranty! Don't want them making an "excuse"

I do not. One thread I read said the guy was told at dealership he had to ask about it.
