01 softtail charging prob
i got a 01 harley softtail 88ci
I replaced the stater and voltage regulator.
I start the bike and my speed odometer shuts off and bike engine light comes on . I put a volt meter on the Battery and showing 18 volts.
This is a 3 wire from the stater to the voltage regulator 32 amp charging system. And was recently told if I don't correct it it will burn my bike up Is not sure what other information you guys are needing but if you have any information please let me know I got the part online and I've already raised hell with them and I just don't have the money to go buy a new system What can I do.. this is the one i put in the bike . My old one was a 2 wire hook up .
Probably better asking your question in this section https://www.hdforums.com/forum/elect...ting-alarm-43/
Not sure if this is the same problem? https://www.hdforums.com/forum/touri...ine-light.html

Just in case you have not done both of these two important items!
Be sure to add an Avatar of your favorite shot in the USER set up for the small picture others will see in the top left corner of your post with your USER name.
And most importantly a Signature Line in your USER set up for your bike model, year, and all the letters that Harley recognizes it with that others see at the bottom.
This enables others to know your exact model if you ever ask a question or another member interested in it may ask you a question about it.
Your all set.... Enjoy the ride! ______________
I tell a lot of new comers to the forum to get: Factory Service manual and the Parts manual. Get a three ring binder and record all your maintenance, repairs, accessories, etc. This will be a great reminder of what was done when. And great material to pass along to the new owner should you sell and upgrade. Also know how large your fuel tank is, a rough idea of your range per tank, and record your fuel usage. I have an app called Simply Auto that I record all my fuel used. I use the odometer and use the fuel gage as reference only. I reset the odometer to zero on fill ups, and I know I can safely get 200 miles on a tank on around town riding, and upwards of 230+ on trips.
Good Luck!!
