Voltage Regulator Problems on 2012 FLSTC
I am starting to experience the same problem as many of the touring model owners are reporting where my charging lamp began to stay illuminated in the last 60 or so miles of my most recent ride. This makes me very nervous. My 2012 FLSTC has approximately 2100 miles on it. I am taking it into the shop this week to have them look at problem.

Same Issue
My 12 Softail Deluxe has this issue, I've had it since June and put around 2000+ miles on it. Now it's to the point where a full charge won't even last a short ride so it is sitting in my garage waiting on the backordered part....makes me sick. Just when it finally cools down below 100 the bike is stuck at home.

I was 'lucky' as I had electrical problems the first week I got my 2012 Heritage and that was the week the letters came out, one dealer couldn't get hold of any Softail VRs but the other one near me had some in stock so it got changed a couple months ago.

I was out of town on mine and stopped at a Harley dealer just to look around. Got to talking to them and they asked me if mine was on the recall list. I told them that I knew nothing about it. They checked my vin and mine was one of the ones to be replaced. They put in their shop and changed it for me at no cost to me. I had no idea there was even a problem. Some dealers are better than others. My dealer has never to this day contacted me about this isssue.
