Go through the grounds.....brush them clean and put a little dielectric grease on them......have solved numerous gremlins that way.

There was a recall on the regulators for the '12 both CVO and non CVO.  I believe it carried the '11 model year and into some of the '13 but I know it hit the '12 as my SESG was recalled.  Mine was doing the same thing yours is currently doing before the recall.  Buddies '12 SERG Skunk was doing the same thing but his was not on the recall list.  Dealer sent a request into Harley....change out was approved and that stopped his issues, too.  Both of our bikes were under warranty at the time of the recall.  With it being 7 years after the fact, the recall may be done but I'd check just in case...couldn't hurt.

Your issues were common with that model year regulator prior to the recall.

I think you missed the boat on the warranty. I'm pretty sure that it's the voltage reg. I had mine replaced under warranty back in 2012.. Good luck. I'm pretty sure that's the problem. Stuart.  :nixweiss:

The factory warranty is long gone of course; I assume Wolfy meant he has an ESP.  If that is the case, if Harley won't cover it under the recall service program then the second option is to pay the ESP deductible and have them replace the voltage regulator.  I think I'd try the program route first, a decent dealership would contact H-D and ask them to cover it under the program regardless of the time since it was issued.  Btw, the program does have this notice included:  This program is effective beginning June 11, 2012. Please be advised that the services delivered under this product program will no longer be rendered at factory expense after two years from the date of this bulletin (June 11, 2014).
