Title: 2009 CVO RG dim turn signal/brake light?
Post by: North Star on May 15, 2018, 08:34:28 PM

Just on the one side... the other side is normally bright, but the other is not so bright, and a couple of the LED's on the bottom are burnt out.

So these of course are the long vertical LED lights that came on the 2009 SERG.

I figure I'll order the light, but was wondering if there is any kind of equalizer or electronic gizmo that may be the problem instead? I would think either the LED's work or they don't.

A friend just upgraded his '16 RGS to these lights, he found aftermarket that appears to be made by the same manufacturer as (identical to) OE at 1/2 to 1/3 $$ of the Harley tax...

Hey, thanks for the info. I haven't seen an aftermarket version, but I ended up finding my local HD dealer had one in stock, so I got it. I spoke to a couple of parts guys at 2 different dealers, and they both said they thought my LED's are on their way out. I'll install it, and if the issue is something else, I'll have it for when I need it. But, I'm guessing the issue is the light assembly itself.

Installed the new light and all is well. See how much longer the other side lasts.
