That’s about what I thought. I’ve had Sportsters for many years and it’s never wise to go anywhere without a couple of circuit breakers in your pocket... once in a while they just don’t reset. Eventually you have them all replaced with modern type ones and the problem goes away.
There are plenty of people advertising conversions, so I suppose the older ones aren’t available any more, anyway I don’t like using old electrical parts.
Ok, I’ll get on it. Plenty to do in the meanwhile.
