Last week I washed my bike and since then the cruise control and gear position indicator has stopped working. I'm sure something is wet I guess. I've looked at the touring manual and there isn't anything on either topic. I'm open to ideas, thanks.
It's been in the shop all week which stays pretty warm when closed up, I had fans blowing to move the air around. I did use a pressure washer which I guess is not a good idea. Not for sure of the pressure but it isn't a large unit. I opened up the right hand control and blew it out with air. The cruise control comes on but will not set. From my gold wing day that tells me it is probably one of the safety switches. Thanks.
