2010 Harley-Davidson Flhx Vehicle speed control Problems

“I was driving down the road going about 50 MPH and my throttle shut off and the engine went into limp mode (shut off one cylinder). I had to cross one lane to pull off the side of the road so I could restart my bike. Luckily there wasn't heavy traffic or it could have been really bad. I see that this is a trend in these bikes and harley needs to do something.”

“The motorcycle goes into limp home mode and throws several codes which are all related to the throttle position sensor. This has happened to me several times at various speeds, RPM's, and throttle positions. I spoke with multiple mechanics and they advised me to first clean the connector at the throttle body. Cleaning the connections worked and I was able to clear the codes. After riding about 150 miles the same issue happened again and I ended up stranded in the middle of no where. This time I could not get the codes to go away. …”
