Click

I've got a 95 electraglide that just clicks when I go to start it sometimes. ( 1 click, not click, click, click)Sometimes it's been hot after riding a while, sometimes it's cold and not been started for a day. Always it starts when it feels like it. Starter is fine, starter clutch has been replaced, (probebly didn't need to be), battery is good. There is a little box with 2 terminals under the seat next to the battery, (relay? / breaker?) my trusted harley mechanic said heres the problem, changed it and off we went. good for a while but then same ol problem.
I don't need this problem!

I don't know much about Harley's but the electrical is basically the same no matter what it's installed on. I assume the mechanic you referred to replaced the relay/breaker you mentioned. If the starter is a known good, etc. I would definetly check out the connections in the starter circuit. They can be corroded under the lugs/connectors even though they appear clean. It could be a loose connection causing an intermittent connection, from the battery all the way to the starter. I assume you have checked the key switch for proper operation, as you meniton it only happens in the "start" position. I'd check it as well if you haven't. I think you'll find a connection that is either loose or corroded. Changing parts gets expensive. Let us know what you find.

Excellent advice...especially the part about getting down to the actual metal for a good ground. Seems to be a problem with the paint being so thick at times.

Click, and away we go

Ok, well I've got some good direction and it jives with other input I've gotten. I was hopein for a sure quick fix...........ha, ha, ha before I start the witch hunt of wires. I haven't started the first dozon obvious things but as experience proves to me ya gotta start somewhere, then just follow the trail lookin for a bad ground or short, bear wire, switch,power, ignition.
I'll let ya know what I find.

Thanks
