I have a 2008 1200 Sportster and have put pipes on and now I want put a high flow air filter. Debating on having it remapped or buying a race fuel tuner. I go on Ebay and there are a lot of new in the box tuners with a dozen different part #s. What I have been able to figure out is the number following the (-) is the year it was produced for. But you read on the box and it will say for, for example, all EFI models 2006+7 or Later. So does that mean it will work on my 2008?

Dont know what the above post has to do with your short!

But if it was working before,I would check the wiring for pinch wires,bad connections,etc-.
