See the CPS go occasionally. When you took it out, did it have any buildup on it.
didn,t see any, the plug end has a lot of oil and build up on it but the inside was clean. Didn’t see any oil leaks. I bought the bike used, just figured they were nasty with oil changes.
There difficult. That electric is coming to ECM. The notches on the crank wheels as they spin by generate it. Just a little green corrosion on a wire attachment to a pin would kill it. Once that happens, unplug and replug may fix it only temporary.
It's not going to show any resistance on your average garage tools. Needs a scanner while cranking or running. Only the latest Harley finally went to latest OB system but still require a adapter to hook it up. They fight us to the very end to discourage us
I have a 46 Chevy Truck. It has 3 size dogbone fasteners on it. Old owners manual suggest to always take in in for service.
When you crank a Harley, the ECM needs so many hits and then that bigger missing notch on the crank wheel. Only then will it start to fire
(PS. Think Hall Effect on how it functions)
Google it and refresh my 75 year old processor. My minor in electronics was when I had a TV with tubes (really )

Got the new crank sensor today, not home to try it but think the wiring is too short. No way the clip will reach the back of regulator plate, where it snaps on.

Some models/years have different length wires...
IIRC, you have an '03 Softail. That should be part #32707-01C......
