    I have a question, When I changed the switch to the three lever switch there was no place for the ground wire. Could this be causing the issue?

    Head light switch replacement (headlights will not turn on)

    2008 LTMV goes into over charge dash shuts off

    CB70 pops immediately. I can reset and it pops. The clicking is what I think is a voltage regulator. It is by the main battery cut off.
