    I have a 2016 Heritage Classic. When I turn my high beams on it goes out. I have troubleshot it from the battery through the switch. I am losing power somewhere between the switch and the light itself. The dealership says it might be the BCM but they will need a diagnostic fee to tell me if it is.

    I am trying to locate the BCM on my bike anyone know where it is?

    After reading your reply I did a little looking around...here is a BCM reader you might consider...Adding if Harley put the headlight control in there me thinks it is a really stupid idea...Ahh for the days of points on my Bonnie...

    Found my problem. It was my aftermarket LED Headlight. I think the little black box attached to the light burned out and was causing my problems. I switched back to the stock lights this morning and everything works great.

    Thanks for your help
