    ignition Module keeps going out even after replacing
     I have tried everything!!! and can't determine what is causing my module to fail supposedly from heat, they are supposed to be designed to withstand that however since they are shoved into the side of the camcover.  ...  more I have tried everything!!! and can't determine what is causing my module to fail supposedly from heat, they are supposed to be designed to withstand that however since they are shoved into the side of the camcover.   It has to be that something was done to the electrial to cause it to happen to my 03' XLH1200.  Anyone out there with a clue

    You also say you have replaced the coil? Is it compatible with the ignition system (proper ohms)? Are you painting the coil or does it have a cover? Some paints will "bleed" through the housing and act as a conductor and short out the coils. I ran into this while building a custom bike. The customer was bound and determined that the coils MUST be painted to match the custom paint job. It took a few months to figure it out.

    You say the plug wires are new? Are they the correct wires? Copper core or silicon? There are many variables at play here, could be you have bare wires touching somewhere creating the "heat" related symptoms. Are you sure it is ignition? Circuit breakers act the same way. They get hot break, cool off and reset themselves. What was the last thing done to tthe bike just prior to these problems occuring? That may be the culprit.
