2000 FXDWG here. Late last year the bike just stopped running after getting hot. Happened a couple of times, would start back up after it cooled off a little bit and run for a while, then quit again. The last time involved a little accident and a broken shoulder, but that's another story. Had the bike trailered home, after the shoulder healed I patched the bike up and pulled the codes, came up 41, CKP. Replaced the sensor, ran the bike through the required starts and the code cleared. Been riding the bike now for a few weeks and some long rides, no problems, and no codes. Yesterday the neutral light didn't come on, checked the wiring, the ground wire to the neutral switch had come off. Must have knocked it loose while replacing the CKP sensor, and it finally worked itself off. Put it back on, turned the ignition on and voila- green neutral light. Great. BUT- then the historic trouble code light came on. Pulled the codes again, came up 41, CKP, again. This without having started the bike. I then started it up, ran just fine. Now, the question: that neutral switch wiring doesn't run through the CKP harness. Any ideas why the code would show up given these facts? Not likely that a brand new sensor would go bad already, is it? Thanks for any thoughts you may have. And sorry for the long-winded post.
