Default Problems with ignition switch
Would anybody have an idea of what's causing my ignition switch **** to not stay locked on 2012 hd roadglide? I have realigned the tumblers, the **** goes down as it is supposed to in the steering lock position and works like it is should in all positions When you lock it with the key, the **** will still move. Could it he a bad or worn out key switch?
