Ignition light

[1 B.M.F.]

Hello new to all this stuff my ignition light is on under my seat does that mean it’s going out?or do I need a new one? Bike runs fine for 30 minutes then shuts down completely no power to anything I just saw the light while I had the seat off and looked it up but don’t have a clue what it’s telling me. Thanks for any and reply’s 05 chopper all original sorry..

Is that a rip kit installed ? Hard to see in the picture
I know you say all original but that doesn’t look to be a stock ehc ? Like I said it’s hard to see in that pic.

Also may want to check your wires on your ignition coil to make sure they are not loose, or it could be an ignition switch issue. Start the bike and check your key switch by moving the key to see if the bike cuts out.

Thanks Paul..I installed a new switch. I have with the bike running a red LED light on on the controller it shows to be the fourth light which on my diagram is ignition just not sure what that means coil is tight all connections are tight

Before I spend $250 on a new ignition just want to be sure I need one

Got it, does your ignition module have the red light on it?
I would check your ehc, clean an use a little di electric grease and make sure it’s seated.
If your ignition key switch is good , I would troubleshoot your ignition module and coil. Before spending 250 on replacing the ignition module.
I am positive their are some threads on here that explains how to on here. I am not the greatest a troubleshooting electrical issues but start with the simple things first before throwing $ at new parts that may not fix the issue.
Also, you may have a grounding issue somewhere in your harness that is causing it to cut out with the vibration? Headlight harness etc...

In addition to looking for wires grounding out check the jst connectors, I have had pins that were loose and not firmly seated. It caused allot of headaches with the bike not starting and was a pita to find. In my case I found it by lightly pulling on the wires that feed into the jst connections. I had on pin that was loose and pulled out of the connection. Once I re seated the pin the issue was resolved.
