Default Cruise control amber light

Hi,
I have a new strange problem with my cruise control.
Bike is a 2007 FLHRC.
As soon as I turn the key switch to ignition, the amber cruise
light comes on, even with the cc switch on the handlebar set to off.
If I turn the keyswitch even the slightest bit back toward off ( counterclockwise ),
the light goes out.
Can't figure this out.
Any ideas.

Thanks in advance,

Jake

Does the cruise work with the switch off? If so, it might be a bad CC switch.

The light comes on the switch is bad. It's either stuck closed or the LED in the switch has a path to ground.

ummm...just to be sure I'm following correctly....the handlebar switch only 'sets' the cruise...if the switch on fairing cap is flipped, the cruise is 'active', waiting for you to set while you get to speed..so.......hence....if the rocker switch at fairing is flipped, orange light is ALWAYS on

FX4,
Do you mean the cc switch on the handlebar is stuck or grounding ?
