Hello everyone, I have 2012 TriGlide, Reverse stopped working. Changed the starter/reverse motor, solenoid, waiting on a new circuit breaker (breaker never popped) just trying everything. Start the bike. push the on button for reverse. Light comes on. Push the reverse switch and nothing happens after doing all that. It seems like it is not getting electricity to the reverse motor. Battery is checking good. While under load it is putting out good voltage up to 14 v. Does anyone have an idea to where I should look next. This has been driving me crazy. It is a 2012 but has only 15000 miles. Thanks in advance

Instead of shotgunning everything, get a test light and check the control signals on the solenoid and the relay if there is one..
Thanks Texas. Got a b1155 code neutral short to battery. Now I guess I will have to find it. I am not that great with electrical stuff. Got any ideas ????
It is just weird. I live in Idaho and at the end of last riding season it started to act up ( sluggish if you will ) now it just won't work ugh. Might just have to take it to harley, that's gonna hurt $$$$$$$ Thank you for responding
Check to see if you have voltage across the 2 wires.. You may want to raise the wheels off the ground when doing the test.. BTW, If neutral light acting funny, you'll need to fix it.
