Good Morning and Happy New Year !!
I've been having some trouble with the right switch gear assembly on my 2006 GL1800. First there is a short in the cruise control button. If you even bump it the bike will hesitate and lose the heated grips and seat. Like a miss fire but the bike restarts and continues fine. Weird. Also the reverse button stuck on me a while ago and it took a bit to get it to disengage. So I have been just leaving the cruise on all the time and have not even tried to use the reverse. Thankfully I haven't needed to use it.
So I am wondering how hard it is to replace the right switchgear pod on the handlebar ? I know the throttle cables are involved and while not totally inept I am inexperienced with messing with the cables and buttons and such. I know some people dismantle the switches and clean and re-grease them but the last time I tried that with my hazard switch I ended up losing the spring. I have fat finger syndrome.
Thanks !!!
