My 2007 Electra X keeps getting electrical surges and it either burns out all of the light bulbs and the headlight, or it blows a fuse. Every shop I take the bike to can't seem to fix it, because nobody around here knows how to work on a RE.
Today I went to start the bike after replacing a couple of light bulbs, and there was electrical smoke coming from under the seat. I removed the seat, and followed the smoke. It looked like the smoke was coming from the following part: T.C.I UNIT-NTI 0014 (see photo RE1). When I unplugged it, it looked like the electrical problem is coming from the green 2-pronged plug on the left side (see photo RE2). If you look closer at the unit, you can see that the outside of the 2-pronged plug is starting to melt (see photo RE3).
Has anybody experienced a similar problem? Is this unit just something that needs to be replaced, or do you think it's something more complex? Any help or advice will be greatly appreciated. Thank you, Christopher
