Default Blinking console lights, headlight going dim.

Got an 07 Streetglide. Me and my Squeeze were out late the other night. On our way home, the console lights started blinking on and off, the headlight would dim, then get bright. First time that ever happened. Any ideas ?

Check the basics first - battery condition, battery and ground connections.

Then check V/R output and Stator output. If batt is getting low while riding could be a sign to get a new one or charging system is starting to fail.
