Default 6th Gear Indicator & Cruise Control

Just yesterday my 6th gear indicator and cruise started going on at off at same time. From what I read it's the clutch switch in the handlebar housing. It starts in gear with clutch in but it trys to lunge forward but doesn't actually move. I was just looking for confirmation before I tore into it. Also can I short out the switch to get cruise and 6th indicator back working? I assume then my bike could possibly start in gear. I was a little confused cause my radio display was also off and on but not same time as 6th indicator and cruise. I had just had Iron Cross rebuild my radio over winter so I thought I was done with radio issues. Guess not. Display would go out but the clock did not go back to 12:00 so I assume it wasn't losing power. Also the AUX Jack sounds horrible. Tried multiple cords and IPods and was muffled and low volume. Thank you for your help! Bryan.

Check battery connections and bike grounding. Multiple systems being effected, sounds like a common power source issue to me.

That sounds good. I will try the connections. What seems very curious to me is that the clock does not reset or lose time????

Mine didn't either, I was also getting periodic bogging down mainly when I hit bumps. But power would come back, radio went back to playing what it was on and so on. Even my bluetooth device connected to the phone stayed on. I had to turn it on any time I started the bike.
