Default Engine stops

Help needed!

My Street Glide from 2007 stops running when the engine is warm.
When i drive and stop over for a traffic light the machine stops running. If i start it runs immediately.
Also when i drive and i pull the coupling and release the gas the machine stops. When i release the coupling the machine starts again and runs fine.

There is no strange sound of the engine what so ever. If the machine is cold nothing weird is going on, it only stops when the engine is warm.
It looks like the idle is to slow when the engie is hot.

Does anyone have an idea what this good be????


Thanks!

Do you mean clutch lever instead of “coupling?” Does it only stall when clutching? If not, it could be the IAC needs cleaning or replacing or could be the temp sensor in the front head. The temp sensor is pn#32446-99 for about $35. IAC is pn#27658-06 for about $40. I’d try cleaning it first, but replacing it isn’t expensive.

Hello,

Thanks for the reply!

Yes, i mean the clutch lever. If the engine is hot it turns of when idle.
If i stop for a traffic light or just get the clutch lever and turn the gas down it turns off.
The machine immidiately runs when i hit the start button.

I removed the air cleaner and found something hanging loose behind the carburetor.
It looks like an fuse and it has a kind of screw attached to it.
I try to post a picture but i did not find how to do that.

Thanks for the help!!

Common cause of this issue is the Vehicle Speed Sensor, Part Number 74402-05B

made a new pincture and the part that is hanging loose is part number: 72533-06.
wit written below PA66.

I don't think that is the problem for the engine stopping...

What is hanging with that PN# is the dust cap for active intake which is used on some international models. That wouldn’t be causing your issue. You also do not have a carburetor being an 07.

some of the issues can be from vacuum leaks which leans out the mix so that it does not ignite. on coast down, the ecm shuts down fuel till it reaches a certain rpm, during this transition, the manifold will go void of fuel and when it calls for fuel, the leak can make it too long to recover.
a bad spot on the throttle position sensor can tell the computer that idle is not requested or alter fuel mix not compatible with rpm
a bad manifold pressure sensor can tell the ecm the wrong load on the engine and alter the mix
mr. thumper threw me a curve but he is actually correct about the vss, however, this is more common with auto transmissions where road speed and map tell the ecu to select which solenoid to open in the transmission for ratio change. i do not think hd will do it. only one way to find out is to disconnect it, i think hd is more along the lines of turns and instrumentation, aka, newer gear selection indicator. could be WRONG, i do not have that junk nor documentation.
there is one HINT!
during startup, the ecu ignores sensor input and runs off the burned in fuel map and when the temp permissive is active, the ecu will calculate the ratio from input and alter the base map.
