Blowing a fuse with the cruise?
 

Went to the Dragon this weekend. While there I ran into a problem. Was driving down the road hit the cruise button on the handle bard by the throttle and the bike died. Pulled over found Ignition fuse was blown (15 amp). Put a new fuse in worked well. Later hit the cruise and the fuse was blown again. Well now I am home and want to find out what caused it? Has anybody else had this problem. All other switches on the right side function correctly. Thanks

What year and model are we working with?

Sorry
 

2011 Electra Glide Ultra Limited.

You may have a pinched wire. Eventually it wore through the covering and has grounded. Remove your unit and take a good look at the wires. If not under the handlebar, then short is elsewhere.

Thanks. Will investigate.

Yep, short to ground somewhere. Do you have aftermarket bars?

Stock bars. I think I found the problem. I took apart the throttle side switch holder. Checked everything. I think the wiring was pulled too tight which caused a pinch. I trailered my bike a few weeks ago. At that time I put the power straps on the bottom of the handle bars. I always put the strap between the wires and bar not over as not to pinch it. When I did that I had to spread the wires from the bar first making it too tight at the end. I am guessing. Just took it for a ride and no issues. Thanks for the advise. :)

Now that you've solved that issue you need to buy a pair of the chrome tie-down hooks that mount on the side of the front forks.
H-D and Kuryakyn makes them and they're worth the bucks if you frequently trailer your bike or use a lift in your garage.

Happened again.
 

Beautiful day. Took to bike out had it at 60 MPH. Hit the cruise set switch. And there she blows. Back under the hood I go.

Can't find any rubbed wires. Is there a relay for the cruise control?
