I was having a problem with Intermittent cruise control, now no matter what I do it will not set. The red light on the dash is working but no matter what I do the cruise control will not work, and I'm about to leave on a 2200 mile trip and it would be really nice to have it working. Any Ideas before I go to the Stealership ?

 

Is your brake light operational?

Any recent work on your rt. side hand grip?????

Have you gone through the Cruise Control Diagnostic Chart and dropout codes?????

 

I didnt check the brake light, the other things you mentioned I'm not familiar with. could you explain more about the drop out codes please ?

 

Ok I just ran out and checked the brake light, It's working with both hand and foot controls. I did have a 55,000 service done but I dont believe they touched the right hand grip for anything.

well I followed that Info, and the cruise light does not come on at all, no matter how many times I held it and turned on the Ignition, any more ideas ?

 

Mechanic told me once that the throttle cable has to be adjusted just right. Too loose or too tight and cruise will not work.

 

My Post has died just like my cruise did, guess it's time for a visit to my local Parts changer, aka Stealership Thanks for the help.

 

I had the same problem on my 03 Ultra. I got the code out and the code was loss tachometer input. I found a pink wire coming from my tachometer right in front of the gas tank broke. Thereare two main wire harnesses next to the frame. HD made a splice with a butt connector there. Two pink wires on the tank side and one on the side that goes up in the fairing. I followed the pink wire back from the tachometer until I found it.

 

Thanks, I'm going to be doing some more troubleshooting today, thats the first place I will look. what did you replace the wire wrap with? just regular automotive wire loom ? or is there something better out there?
