Talking Neutral light

I just wanted to see if anyone has had this happen or may know a reason for it. When I ride in the mountains all of a sudden the neutral light and the red key alarm light comes on and stays on. This does ot happen at any other times only when I ride to in the mountains. I need to check when a Harley Mechanic but I thought I would ask here to.
Thanks AL

My Neutral light is always on except in first. They changed the o-ring on the switch, they changed the shifter pawl. No dice, it's still on.

It is a defective neutral switch...They are on the fourth or fifth revision. It seems to show up in the heat.

Replace it for $18 and five minutes of your time and it should be fixed. I did almost two years ago and it has been fine.

It's not the wire, it's not the o ring it is the switch.
