2014 triglide reverse quit
Need a little help... my wife and I were out this past weekend, and everything worked great.. got up and out Sunday morning and went to use reverse and the light comes on
and I hear it try to move the bike but it just wont back it up.. I can hear it click and try to do something but it wont move in reverse.. any ideas.. really could use the help
Thanks Ron
First to look at is the circuit breaker its under the right side panel , Check it to see if it tripped......Maybe thats the problem, After that there is a slight chance the motors gear got jammed on the reverse ring gear, If thats the case rock the trike forward and backwards to free it.....After that if it still wont work, The reverse motor has to be rebuilt. Many members here had their reverse motors go out, Including mine..[3 times]Originally Posted by RJS
