Default F.Y.I About Eagle Lights...

I recently upgraded my bike's stock halogen bulb lights to LEDs from Eagle Lights.

After the installation, I discovered a defect with their equalizer modules.

If you have the Harley security system and siren, the bike will emit the setting 'chirp' sound multiple times after you turn off the ignition.

Sometimes it will flash without the siren chirp.

This continues until you walk far enough away, and it will happen every time.

Additionally, I noticed that now the green 6th gear light briefly turns on even when I'm in a much lower gear.

Just wanted to give you all a heads-up before you consider making a purchase from them...

What did Eagle say when you contacted them?

They have always been super helpful.

@EagleLights
Eagle Lights informed me that I was essentially **** out of luck if I wanted to keep the new LED lights.

They acknowledged that this was a known issue but stated they could not do anything about it.

The only solution they offered was to send me what they referred to as an "old school" module.

This module would prevent the issue from occurring, but... it has a significant drawback: it gets extremely hot and needs to be installed in a location on the bike where it is not covered and can receive airflow to stay cool.

My main concern with Eagle Lights is that they are fully aware of this issue yet do not openly disclose it on their website for potential customers to see before purchasing their products....

I'm assuming you are referring to the LED turn signals. I replaced the bulbs with these from SuperbrightLEDs
1157 CANbus LED Bulb - 28W - 2,500 Lumens - Cool White / Amber / Red - Single / 2-Pack
1156 CANbus LED Bulb - 28W - 2,500 Lumens - Cool White / Amber / Red - Single / 2-Pack
They fit in the stock housings on my 2022 Road King, are very bright and set no codes. Send those others back to EagleLights.
