OD Indicator
Yesterday I noticed when I put it in OD, the indicator would take a couple of seconds before it lit up. Today it didn't come on at all, well it did once, but when I rode it later it didn't. I thought I read on here somewhere that the OD light and cruise were linked so, I tried the cruise and it works fine. What do y'all think? Blown bulb? Loose connection? Sensor out of adjustment? Leaving Sunday on a 10 day trip so as long as the cruise works and I'm not messing something up, I'm not going to worry about it until I get back.

Re: OD Indicator
When you turn the key on does the OD indicator light illuminate with all the other lights before going out or does it stay dark?
I have a blown bulb in Cruise On and when I turn the key on and the lights light, it does not. That should be how you can check the bulb.

Re: OD Indicator
You are welcome. Glad it seems to be something not problematic (except changing the bulb).
I am debating the changeover to LED when I replace my burned out bulb. As well as LEDs around the bike.
