speed sensor
#11
I'm actually experiencing the same thing on my 2001 Road King. The first time I removed the sensor there were a lot of shavings attached to the sensor because it seems to be a magnetic pick up. I cleaned it and reinstalled it. My speedo and blinkers started working normal again for about 150 miles then the speedo started bouncing around again and after a few minutes stopped working. I decided to change tranny fluid and flush the tranny to try and remove any metal residue. It seemed to do the job but stopped working again. My next step will be to just replace the sensor.

I have a 2002 Road King, engine would die when stopping at red light / stop sign , speedometer needle would go crazy or not work at all, turn signals would not turn off automatically, odometer would not register miles. I cleaned speedo sensor after removing part from engine side and everything has worked fine now for 6 months. Did buy new sensor but part not real easy to replace.

Update on my last post...I replaced the sensor which wasn't too hard. I had to pull the battery off to get to the wire connector but it's a pretty simple 15 minute job. I did notice that the new sensor wasn't magnetized like the original one I pulled out...500 miles of riding so far and still working great! The sensor was only $62.00 from my local Harley dealer.
