Default Water in Tour Pak tailights.

15 Ultra. My right turn signal started acting funny and working intermittently. Dealer wanted $129 to diagnose if the problem wasn't covered by warranty. I rode it home (180 miles) and started looking. I found water in the connector. Blew it out with a little low pressure air but it filled back up. So I pulled the fixture and got better than 1/2 cup of water in the lens. I could seem to get the lens off. Was afraid of breaking it. Re-installed it but the problem is still there. I'm gonna call the dealer tomorrow and see if this is covered under warranty.

The bike has never been pressure washed. I've ridden in the rain several times. Gonna call the dealer tomorrow and see if it is a warranty issue. Anyone else have this problem.

I changed mine out to smoke lens units shortly after I bought the bike. PM me if you are interested in buying them from me. Harley gets $299 for 'em. I'll go 1/2 that plus shipping if you want them.

Can't see it not being under warranty, if you are still within your 2 years from purchase date, unless you have messed with the lights prior to the leaks

3 weeks past the 2 year mark. I have extended warranty but I'm being told it's not covered.

Not going to say it will work, but try another dealer, sometimes the service manager's at different dealers, work a little harder to help customers out, worth a shot, worked for me once

What the heck good is an extended warranty if it won't cover obvious defects? Being on this forum and following countless threads on warranty, I've learned that one dealer will deny a warranty claim while the dealer up the road will take care of it. There's no consistency.

This extended warranty you have, who is it through?
