Default Throttle stuck

Replaced my bars on a 2015 street glide. Once I start the bike the throttle is stuck and revs all the way. Anyway to reset the tbw sensor? Thanks

Sounds like you have a couple wires in the wrong slots. Disconnect the throttle position sensor, and verify/correct the wiring.

There are two pairs of red / black wires. Make sure you didn’t get the switched.

Also, there is a plug under the dash that has some sketchy pins from the factory. The dealer sells updated silver coated pins. I had to replace mine after the second bar change because they were giving me TBW issues.
