Here's a picture of my FXS -- Is that the converter at the front of the motor, under the batterY?

How did that all work out -- did the new converter work just right? lights, horn, et seq all a go?

Hey, thanks very much. that's about what I wanted to know --- I too would be in way over my head, with a basket case on my hands littering up my garage. I'm going to just keep on riding, minus the lights and the horn, until something comes up that requires the removal of the battery and I'll...

"he tried working the connector first " the technician was able to get his hands on the connector BEFORE the battery was removed for service? that's what I wanna do.

Did it turn out that the converter -- the Part , the DC-DC CONV 500W -- was actually bad, or that the snap connector to the 12v accessories harness was making a bad connection? Did the Dealer give you your old parts back, so we can do an autopsy?

Still running with this intermittent problem -- the lights and horn cut out. Those photos are pretty daunting -- you have to tear down the bike pretty good to get at this "converter" and its connector to the 12v accessories. By converter, do you mean a gizmo that converts battery voltage to 12 v ?

any updates on this thread? My 2017 FXS just stopped charging.

i'll take your findings -- the solution to the problem -- to the independent repair shop and see if they will make the repair, being forearmed with the knowledge about the little electrical gizmo that needs to be snapped together. Sometimes from experience, a good (bike) mechanic can wiggle and...

I have the same problem on my 2017 FXS. Totally intermittent. You take off with all system go, and the lights and horn cut out. Did the dealer say, or does anybody know, if it's okay to ride that way? Is there any chance the motor will cut out because of this? Doesn't feel like it. OTOH...

Has anybody come up with a way to broadcast the sound of a Harley matched to the load and speed of a Zero -- in realtime of course.
