Sounds to me like a pinched wire when tightening the chrome controls together on the bars. Just an idea. For a schematic (and the rest), try the link after this. No lecture here, just a quick link that served me very well. $8US instant download of manuals. Good to have regardless of present need. You're welcome. http://www.repairmanualsoncd.com/har...ce-manuals.php

I don't suffer fools, it annoys me. If I had the SM I would be riding the bike today..but not having access, I asked for help. You are correct..there are many good people on these sites, but they usually come with constructive comment. I have seen that mindless SM response adnauseum...felt it stupid the first time I saw it posted and have not changed my kind. But I can appreciate your comment, just don't agree with it.
Anyway if you heard a pop immediately after doing this mod crack the housings back open get everything separated then check all the fuses and if nothing is blown try the controls again.
PS like we give a **** if you take your ball and go to VT forum...happy trails bro

Wow...
If comments are not deemed helpful or immediate, we are to be disregarded.
What a nice way to act toward people that try to offer advice without expectation of remuneration or reciprocity....
Thank you for your contribution...
ps... I had similar symptoms when my voltage regulator went bad...

for someone asking for help you have a pretty big chip on your shoulder. If you're going to do your own work get an SM with a wiring diagram. Thats not bad advice but we will jump right in and try to help because you arent prepared.

I found the thread interesting... doc strikes me as abrasive... but he is as direct as can be... It does seen funny that someone would post for assistance, and then respond like that... But after all that I just might buy him a beer if seated next to him.
Part of me is happy he fixed his bike... but the other part of me enjoyed him being such an ***, and the resulting tribe.
doc, don't be a stranger here...
