Scheduled 15k maintenance last week for this Saturday and this week my voltage dropped to 11.8 volts, display started flashing and went dim.
😐😐
I let them know and I will be leaving it with them.

Two years of owning mine and I still struggle with rolling the dice every time I back it out of my garage. I can unplug it from the battery tender, roll it back ten feet, turn the ignition on with 12.1 - 12.2 volts present, press the starter button, and listen to it try to start "Grrr-eerrr-eerrrr" while throwing fault codes, check engine lights, warning triangles, and tripping the ride mode selector to little more than a worthless warning triangle, etc. etc. I'm on software 5.1380.65 20230911. About the only thing software updates have changed to me are eliminating the heated grip symbol on the gauge when it's not in use, and changing the flashing shock absorber icon from yellow to green. I love the bike but this has unquestionably been the largest thorn in my side since purchasing the bike - how HD ran these bikes through "grueling" testing and never saw this - or chose to fix it - is beyond my comprehension. :(

Has it had a new battery (of a different type)? Antigravity battery fixed all my issues.

I rode my 2022 PAS from Idaho headed to Fairbanks, Alaska last May. I had many of the same issues with the display, but figured it would keep going if I continued to have display issues. Made it to Whitehorse, Yukon Territory in Northern Canada only to have be electrical system take a crap. After renting a Uhaul truck and hauling my bike to the Harley Dealer in Anchorage they discovered the stater went out. Took them a month to fix it, of course the factory warranty was expired but I did purchase an extended service plan that covered most of it. I ended up taking an airline back home and had them just sell it for me after they repaired it. After reading this forum over the last year this will be the first and last HD I will ever own.

36,000 miles on mine, I freaking love everything about it. It hasn't had any more trouble than the 25 or so import bikes I've owned in my life. It's my fourth Harley and definitely not my last.
