Mechanic is scratching his head!
Took my Ultra in for a new set of shoes. All went well and as usual he treated me like a valued customer. When I dropped it off I mentioned that the neutral light was not coming on as it should. The mechanic must have been feeling froggy so he asked, do you know where it is so I replied somewhere between 1st and 2nd. He hopped on the bike after a minor laugh and tried it himself only to find that the light would not come on after the first couple tries. Then the light came on in slow motion meaning it was at first very faint then became brighter. I left the bike there for the day while at work and returned after I got off. He said that he was not able to locate the problem in any wiring and did not know what else to do. He did document the problem and said he would try other sources.
Anyone here have any thoughts that you would not mind sharing...thanks a bunch.

Never had them replace the light module.
May be the trick
You wouldnt have the part number on that would you?
If it is the little light module in the fairing above the gauges? They did replace that...

I assume your dealing with the 03 in your sig right?
Its a simple ball switch, pull the wires and connect them, does the dash light come on? If so its the switch, pull it connect the wires back and push the ball up, does the light come on? No replace the switch, yes install the switch back in the cover and torque it to spec, does the light come on? No replace the switch, yes, go ride!
