Hello,

Has anyone experienced an electrical short that prevents the neutral light from coming on? If so, where did it occur on the bike?

On the 07 it's two wires to the neutral switch, one tan and one black. The neutral switch and neutral light test ok. I ask about a short because testing the tan and black neutral switch wires shows 12v, but when I introduce a load (test light) to the circuit the volts drop to 0.7v and will not turn on the test light. Test light tested ok on alternate source too. Cleaned all the connectors and I am in the process of back probing them to narrow this down but no luck yet.

Thank you,
Tekkman

Tekkman, Have you physically removed the neutral switch in the transmission housing?

If not inspect and clean it off on the underside?

TN, yes sir! switch was clean when I pulled it out and bench tested ok.

Crazy suggestion...I worked on my friends FB last year. Had a similair problem. Ends up mice crawled up into his console made a nest and chewed his wires. The coating is made of soy bean extract.
