Ignition (fork lock) switch froze
Had the bike at the dealer for warranty (front brake switch bad).
They washed the bike. Drove it home. 24 degrees overnight, bike in carport.
Next morning the fork lock switch would not move. Tried unlocking with key and the key turned freely in both directions (lock/unlock). Switch still would not move.
Had to use a hair dryer under the switch cap to thaw it out.
