SOURCE: 03 harley sportster, hooked up new led turn
The load on the LED lamps is too low for the turn signal control box. there is an equilizer box available you have to put in line with the signals to get the load back to where it needs to be.
In it's current condition it beleives a light is burnt out.
you can get the device at your local dealer or on line .
Hi Alex Iam not too sure but I think this model had a neutral switch fitted that stopped the bike from starting in gear , and displayed a light on the clocks when the bike was in neutral .
If as you say the bike is jammed in first this is probably the cause
the jamming sounds abit more serious ?.. you may have bent the selectors and this will mean a gearnox stripdown , it is even possible you have damaged the lay shaft if the bike was travelling when you came off this would also mean a box strip down .
I dont think there is an easy answer to this one Alex loks like you will have to take the engine apart to fix this one ( one thing did strike me I had an old BSA that I slid on the gear shaft and did the same thing stuck in first turned out I had bent the gear shaft removal of the pedal and gentle tapping freed the gears off and I was able to use the bike again ? it may help I cant be sure be careful not to damage the case or the splines I used a small lump hammer and a block of 4x 4 against the shaft .. I also put a wedge behind the shaft to stop damaging the rear of the box housing ) hope this helps Regards vortash

This depends on the type of carb that is on the bike. What year model is the bike. The stock carb on all Harleys since the mid-1970's are not adjustable. The only adjustment is the idle mixture screw and that's covered with an "anti-tamper" plug. Unless this plug has been removed, the carburator is not adjustable. If the carb is something other than a Keihin carb with Harley-Davidson, it depends on what kind of carb it is. Still once the engine is above idle speed, the adjustment of the idle speed mixture makes no difference.
