geez guys sorry for the post, yeah I know I forgot to use the search function.....maybe next time.....

Don't sweat it, it gives us a chance to rib you a little. I know when my fork lock wasn't working (it still isn't) I checked the forums first, too. I've been reluctant to go prying with a screwdriver, but I might just have to try.

The new lock/ignition switch is a different part number, the new one has an A after the number. Just thought that I'd keep this thread going.

rob_will... Ain't no big deal...as but Ill try 2 try.. said. As far as helping anyone out around here, everybody will step right up and either give you help or at least point you in the right direction to get it fixed... As it turned out you fixed it on your own... which is great.. I'll bet ya.. it comes up again in a month or so...LOL.. But, as the welcoming message for newbies says...

2) Before asking a question about ANYTHING (yeah, I meant to SHOUT), learn how to do a Search. There are many topics that have been covered and maybe your question has already been answered. Two or three times, most likely. Admin has created a couple sections (Harley Bike Forums, Tech Forums, Do It Yourself Forums) that may have answers, also. Look in them.

3) While there are many great folks in here that can give you assistance on nearly every problem your bike can suffer, there are also a couple things you can do, too. If you plan on riding a bike, get a service manual. If you can't cough up the bucks for the jen-u-whine HD manual, get a Clymer's, Chilton's, or Hayne's version. Sometimes the manual will actually have information that you can use to do things like, oh, change your oil, or trace out a wire, or adjust a belt or chain. If you ain't the wrench-type, no big deal; you'll get help on here. After all, we ain't all rocket scientists.
That's why I mentioned it.. Not trying to be a pain in the ****...LOL

Its not much force at all..Thats prolly the problem. Its just to loose. Could use your fingers if there was room to get them on it.
