2017 Electrical Issues

[ke0odd]

Having an issue with my 2017 Street Glide Special, and wondering if anyone else has seen this. When I start the bike, everything seems fine for about a minute. After that, all of the dash lights go out, the neutral/cruise control/oil etc. lights go out, and the cruise control will disengage after about 30 seconds of use. The only other thing I have noticed is the volt meter pegs out at 16 when it happens.

The local Harley shop suggested a loose battery cable, but they are all tight. Any suggestions?? Thank you.

Check your bike for Diagnostic codes and see if any are set.

So I ran the trouble codes. There were a total of 5 codes. B2151, B2201, B2272, C0563, and B1300. In looking them up, most of them are "high voltage" codes. I searched online and couldn't find anything similar. I guess I will take it to the shop today but not sure when they can get to it.

I’m wondering if you have a problem with the voltage regulator.

That’s what I was thinking but I’m just guessing

High Voltage is not directly addressed in the diagnostic manual but it does mention that if your bike is put on a unapproved charger for an extended time this could cause an issue.

Haven’t even had it on my Harley battery tender. No idea what happened

Dutch, I didn't want to leave you hanging on the problem. It was a bad voltage regulator. Thanks for your comments and assistance.
