  • This week Doc Harley has a 2003 Road King with a Neutral light not working. Doc will explain how a neutral light works and how to diagnose if it is the switch or wiring.

    Thanks for the explanation. I didn’t know that a ground would be in a switch circuit. And great that your dealership still works on older bikes.

    Good to see your dealership, still values working on Harley's 10 years and older. Way to keep the business profitable. And a great service for people with older Harley's.

    Ty Doc Harley. My oil light on 07 RK don’t come on as the neutral safety switch too. I will diagnose the light with the wires.

    Same on my 04 ultra but the switch is different with the Baker DD-6 Rev. transmission. One is a close switch and the other is an open switch.

    Used this technique on my 2012 FXDC after watching your video today and thankfully it's live, (It wasn't functioning), so it's the switch which is preferable to the wire harness under the dash, in the down tube trick. Thank you Doc!

    In my case on 1999 FLHTCUI a bulb was a half way out (don't ask me why). So if the lamp isn't on, after you short connect it with tweezers, check the bulb also.

    • @LowCountryHarleyDavidson
      @LowCountryHarleyDavidson  11 месяцев назад

      I like it, especially if your bike color is unique. The speedo/Tach offers background lighting colors. The Tach function helps in diagnosing we’re an issue occurs at what RPM too….Doc

  • @jimdiavastes
    @jimdiavastes 7 месяцев назад +1

    I believe on a two wire system the neutral switch completes ground - it has a hot side relative to ground but it's not a true 12+, because if it were, and you shorted it to ground there would be fireworks.

    Doc, you need to do some video's with the issues the New SportsterS has been having. The 2021-22 Models were a mess of problems, you should discuss some of the remedies that have been done.
