NHTSA recall 11V343000
Exterior Lighting · Indian Motorcycle Company
Details
What's wrong: If the headlight switch is slowly moved from one position to another (high beam to low beam or low beam to high beam), both beams may be on momentarily and the bcm interprets this as an overload condition.
Why it matters: The bcm turns off the headlight until the next time that the key is turned on. The unexpected loss of headlight function could impair a driver's visibility, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix: Dealers will replace the bcm free of charge. The safety recall began on August 4, 2011.
