Ignition light should always be on when the bike is running. When the key is ON and you push RUN the ignition light should light up and stay on when the bike fires and running.

Did you remove the main power harness clean and fill with Di-electric grease?

Wait I just re-read your original post. You said the bike ran and stopped. How long until it stopped? The Ignition light being on as you say it is a good thing. The only light you want to see on the EHC when the bike is running :up:

After it died, ignition light was still light I assume, did you try to restart? Anything?

Sounds like my problem I had. There was a recall in 2010 for some 04 models for the main wire harness coming loose from the EHC and intermetiant power problems to the bike. Unfortunatly big dog is no longer in business so I was a bit late to the party or would have got this fixed last year.

Check out my last post on the this topic, as it shows a quick video of my issue and then my temporary fix until I have time to install a wire plus this winter. You might consider trying a temp fix prior to installing wire plus just to ensure there is no other problems. Once you start cutting it might be more difficult to find the root cause.
