Default odometer stays on

My odometer stays on with everything turned off. Is this normal?

It's not normal. You might want to have the dealer have a look..

I just got my deuce from the original owner with 3200 miles. He has a Power Commander installed and upgraded to a later Deuce dash with tach. I am going to check the wiring to these (Harley dealer installed) first. Thanks

Sounds to me like ignition switch. Just happened to a buddy. Gauge lights would stay on.
