Maybe a stupid question, but have you checked the fuse?

I had a '99 Sportster that had the same symptoms you are describing. I found the ground cable to the frame, pulled it and the terminal practically fell off in my hand . The strands that made the cable were corroded under the insulation and made a ground with one or two strands. Check those ground cables at both ends. Replace if there is corrosion.
