I remember they have a recall on the ignition switch, don't know if that will affect what you are talking about. I e mailed my dealer and they said it wasn't a safety recall and parts are on back order. Go to the HD website and check the recalls. Good luck.

They put it there so you will BUY something and hook it up.

Exactly. I installed the Road Zepplin seat and hooked it up to the auxillary accessory adapter near the battery

I used the unused accessory switch on my StreetGlide to control my garage door opener. Mounted a small transmitter under the fairing, soldered wires to the switch in the transmitter and ran them to the switch. Now, when I come home from a ride, I simply flip the switch and the garage door opens !

So, you guys are telling me that there is something on my bike that is even more useless than the air temp gauge?
