Had a similar issue with the VL. Found out it was the steering wheel stalk. The orange piece that sits inside you boss kit or steering wheel column.

Yeah I did. The main reason for replacing the collum was because the high bean wouldn't stay on. Had to hold the stalk on to have high beam. Apparently the stalk can wear out easily making your blinkers hard to cancel & so on. It was a fairly easy do. Just had to remove the steering wheel & boss kit. Which revealed your collum stalk. Mine was coloured orange. Hope this helps.
