Battery lite came on, barely made it home... Bolts in rotor came lose, (only 06 was bolted), ruined the stater and in the words of my mechanic "fried the voltage regulator" $1,000+ repair. If you google 06 dyna battery light, well if you were in a casino you would be knee deep in tokens...all replies under 20,000 miles.
