Yes, but not to me. Very common subject here. Apparently the wires aren't large enough
to carry the load on high speed. Same thing can happen with the headlight switch. If
you have a rear heater, the switch is the same, otherwise I think they are available
from the list vendors. Yes, they are, $4.95 from TBD.
