Locking Glove Box

[NorCalBud]

Is the glove-box supposed to actually "lock" when the you lock the handlebars (turn to left or right and lock with the ignition) so you can't open it at all? Mine does not..., but the handlebars do go over the top of the box so it's difficult to open more than a couple of inches. Is this what's meant by "Locking" or is mine broken? It's been this way since I purchase. '12 RTLtd.

Glove box is lock when: 1) you turn the handlebars in the right or left and 2) when you turn your ignition key to the left in the lock position (as you written).

My glove box is lock in this position and I can't open it. You probably have a problem...

Yes it is broken

From what it sounds like yes your's is broken, more than likely it is the cable that goes from the ignition to the lock on the glove box.

Best of luck,

Bob

Bummer...I had a feeling that was the case though. I guess I'm going to have to have the dealer take a look sooner than later. Kinda trivial to take in just for that....but I would like everything to work as it should!

The cable on my wifes RT wasn't hooked up to begin with at the handle bar end.. I discovered it when I pulled them off to get powder coated.

Ours was the same way. Cable was off at the ignition switch.

seems like a common problem mine was not connected at the steering end also.i opted to wait for another service appointment to have fixed . no sense in losing your ride over this
