...I've had problems with my ignition switch locking (via remote or manually) on my 2012 FLHTCUSE7 since day one. Today, I took it to the local dealer and they replaced the switch ...then when I went to pick-it-up...it still did not operate correctly using the remote or by the key. The switch will pop-up and come out when manually locking it...same exact problem I took it in for. They tech said they are going to order a complete assembly...kinda scary since the tech did not seem very knowledgeable regarding this problem or it would have been fixed right the first time. The sad part is they tried to pass it off as being repaired without checking to see if it worked correctly. They also nicked the paint on the fairing instrument panel while removing it and I did not notice it until I got it home...hopefully that won't be an issue and they will order a new one.
Anyway, I noticed several members on this forum experiencing the same problem with the lock...so I recommended the tech contact H-D to see if the MoCo is aware of the power ignition switch knob issues. The switch assembly still feels like it's in a bind and does not turn smoothly like my other touring bikes did.
How many of you have or had problems with the switch locking manually and/or by the remote? And how did you fix it?
thanks,
Randy
