I'll bet I missed you guys since I posted that and went to bed..Grrr. But reading I get a sense of what you all say and I want to thank you. Sorry for not posting my make and model it's a 2003 fuel injected softail deuce, The Screaming Eagle Deuce to be exact, FXSTDSE. I'm an idiot sometimes , sorry bout that.
Check for codes. Maybe have a tech do it. Might need a re flash. You never know.
My check engine light is coming on to show a historic code, meaning, it comes on for the initial key on voltage check then goes off and comes back on for the 8 sec interval then goes off and stays off, doesn't come back on while riding. But be dammed if I can pull a code from it by means of jumping the data link connector.
The fact that after 5 hours the battery was dead from full means something else was going out already,
The battery was an old one I had had prior problems with it so I did put a new HD battery in the bike, changed the coil, new plugs wires and no change. I have a different TSSM, thought maybe it may be culpart since everything is wired into that thing seems like. But haven't moved on that yet. I do have a volt meter and going to test the Voltage Regulator, probably should've started there huhh?
No not any better at all but sometimes it does seem different and just when I think it's improving it shows me different. May just be in my head too IDK, but not fixed by no means
