Red warning light beside the speedometer
I have a couple of issues I would like to pose to all:
1. Does anyone know what that warning light is for? On my 2012 Fat Boy, it will periodically come on, but nothing ever happens with the bike. It has come on when my headlight burnt out, but it has come on other times also.
2. How difficult and expensive is it to change the turn signal light module
under the speedometer? One of my turn signal LED's is out and I would like to replace it, but have to replace the module.
3. Periodically, my "dash" lights go out (speedometer, etc.). When it happens, the bike runs fine, but the idle is much higher. When they come back on, the idle returns to normal. Any thoughts?

Not trying to sound like a dick, but...... wouldn't these questions get a better response in the Softail forum? Or do you just like us better

do you have a load equalizer for your LED signals?
on my 2011 SG, the red key security light would come on after I installed LEDs. put the load equalizer in and no more problem.
The red key light would not come on if I didn't use the turn signals, but as soon as I did it would come on.

That suggestion gets my vote! Intermittent problems are not easy to diagnose from a distance, far better done in person. A tech will probably diagnose it in a few minutes.
