Finally, my cruise control is working as it should and huh, even better than before. Late last fall, I had the local dealer techs installed braided steel throttle cables and clutch / brake hoses on my Midnight and after that, the cruise control stopped working.. it would simply not engage. Turn it on, green light.. press set, 2nd green light and gently release the throttle and plump... greens flashing and amber flashing and no cruise control.. ergh I took it back to the dealer this afternoon and lo and behold, after two attempts they got it working again. They admitted the books suck as to HOW to install the junction box properly, Goose had even submitted a bit of a how to, what to look for but I couldn't make head or tails of what I was seeing on the bike.. And well neither did the tech.. they tried this and that with the cable and Hmm something wasn't right. the FIX was the 3rd cable coming out of the junction box was binding. The tech who fixed it remembered doing the bike last fall and feels he might have caught the cable when closing up covers and panels etc. Lube and testing shows it works even better than before! SO.. before you get your braided steel cables installed, TEST drive your bike to ensure cruise control works.. And then when you get your bike back, TEST drive your bike again to make sure it work etc as apparently, its common for the cruise control to bunge up after this job.. 2.5 shop hours later, no bill.. Wow, a "DEALERship" did good on it's work.. and apologized for the inconvenience.. Wow, I'm impressed! (BTW, 3rd greens is 5th gear indicator lol) Cheers
