    I have a 2006 HD rd glide. I can put a new fuse in and it might last all day or a few miles. Checked as much of the wiring that I can. Dont know what it could be. The ignition switch would not go to assessories but now it does. Could that be causing my problem?

    typically it's a short where a power line has rubbed through, cracked or broken.

    Put in a new fuse and do a wiggle test on wires, you might want to pull the outer
    faring so you can get to wires, don't yank on them but just move them around a little
    like they would on the bike.

    Eventually you'll get to an area that will pop the fuse,

    You might have to pull the tank...

    Also, did you do any work on the bike recently. If so start in that area checking for a short like hotroadking said. Good luck and let us know.

    If the switch didn't go to ACC before and does now you may have busted somethin lose in the switch and it's shorting out the fuse! Start at the switch and like said work your way through the fairing and down :witsend::rant:
