Warranty issues Security light coming on, bad wiring, and also not starting in gear

[hardwickbv]

On my ride in this morning I had to stop at a light and while sitting the security light came on.

Since it is red and it got me a little concerned until I figure out it was the security light.

It went off once I got back in motion but when I slowed down to park it came back on.

This is the coldest morning I have rode it so far but not bad at 46 degrees.

Could the FOB battery be weak, flaking out due to the cold and need replaced?

Any ideas?

2017 Tri-glide.

Thanks

I doubt it's the fob battery. Me, I'd make the ride to my dealer on a Saturday and let them plug in the Tech II to check for codes. The trike is under warranty. Let them mess with it. Ymmv ..............

The good thing is I am taking in tomorrow to have them fix a couple warranty isses.

It won't start in gear and I found a wire harness for the auxiliary lights that has been pinched/cut that is showing bare wire.

I will just add this to the list.

You can diagnose your trouble codes here

Is there a code or message in your odometer window now? It could be a weak battery in your fob, however it may not start next key cycle then. Take it in to the dealer if you have warranty, Good Luck

Harley Trouble Codes

The following procedure will instruct in retrieving and clearing ECM Diagnostic Trouble Codes and TSM/TSSM codes through the Harley guage cluster as well as a list of codes.

1- Turn Ignition switchto OFF & Run/Stop switch is to Run.

2- Push odometer resetbutton in & hold.

3- Turnignition switchto Ignition and release the odometer reset button. Background lighting should illuminate, speedometer needle should sweep its full range and indicator lamps (battery, security, low fuel, check engine and cruise) should illuminate. The word "diag" should then appear.

4 - Push the odometer resetbutton once and you will seethe selection menu "PSSPt" with the first P flashing.

5 - Each letter represents an area of the diagnostics module. The module that is flashing is the one you are going to check. To move from one letter (module) to the next, you push the odometer resetbutton one time. (from P to S to SP to t and back to P, etc.)

P = ECM/ICM(Electronic Control Module)[EFI] /Ignition Control Module[Carbureted])

S = TSM/TSSM (Turn Signal/ Security Module)

SP = speedometer

T = tachometer

6 - To get the DTC within an area of diagnostics, push and hold the odometer resetbutton in for 5 seconds and release. If there are any DTC's the code will be displayed or the word "none" will appear if there are no DTC's. Push the odometer resetbutton again to view additional codes if they exist.

7 - Record the codes.

8 - If DTC's are not to be cleared, Press and release the odometer resetbutton. Part number of module will be displayed.

NOTE: To determine if a code is current or historic, clear the displayed code by pushing in and holding the odometer reset button ( longer than 5 seconds) until 'clear' comes up. Release the odometer reset button. Turn OFF the ignition switch. Run your bike and shut it down then recheck the DTC's again by repeating steps 1 to 9. If the code is current it will reappear.

9 - Press and release the odometer reset button to continue to the next module.

10 - Turn Ignition switch to OFF.

On models not equipped with a tachometer "No Rsp" will appear when the tachometer identifier is selected.

"No Rsp" (no response) will also appear if the run/off switch is in the off position when doing this procedure.

Not understanding the not starting in gear issue some are having. My trike starts in gear w/o issue all the time. I don't even have to pull the clutch lever back all the way. Just enough to disengage the clutch. Does not matter if I use the foot or hand brake.

Could be their pressing the start button before fully pressing firmly on the foot brake or brake lever....I know if i step on the brake pedal as i simultaneously press on the start button, It won't start, I then have to come off the start button and press it again..[While still on the brake pedal]

[MikeyTX]

Could be

[rhino 2]

Could be

Try it yourself......Simultaneously ' Step on the brake petal and press the start button....

Or Press the start button and then step on the brake...

Mine worked like that when I first got it, then it was intermittent and finally quit altogether.

I took it to the shop a couple weeks ago to have my handlebars put on and the front fender light fixed. I also put on the order to check out why it wasn't starting in gear.

When I went to pick it up a week later I was told that trikes are not supposed to start in gear it is a safety issue. the service guy stated that he had talked to the service and sales managers and they even tried it on a new in stock 2017. I was so irritated when I left I was going to another dealer. But since it is a 1.5 hour ride home I thought of something better.

I called the HD home office and spoke with customer service (good people) the lady on the phone put me on hold and went to talk with a tech and verified that yes you should be able to start your trike in gear with the clutch in and either front or rear brake activated. My question was how do I convince my dealer of this.

They provided me with a reference number and told me to call the dealer and have them contact HD customer service with the reference number.

So now they are on notice that there is a path that this customer will take if I don't get what I expect.

We'll see tomorrow how well that works.

Still may end up going to another dealer for future service.

Keep us informed Bob....This starting/not-starting is getting interesting, I'm starting to wonder if its not just one thing but a combination of component's [part's] thats causing the problem for so many..

Dealer is full of crap. The issue is simply that the tech does not know what to look for. My '17 starts in gear w/o issue.

[Jack Klarich]

There has been problems with the new switch halfs, my 15 did this the rs switch is a compound unit and is NOT servicaeable JMO

[hardwickbv]

Took the trike in Friday morning and was there at 9AM when the door opened.

The security light was coming on due to a damaged wiring harness going to the right side cooling fan which was not coming on when it should have been.

They fixed that as well as the damaged wire I had already found going to the left Auxiliary/passing light.

Now for the not so good part the main reason It was going in was for not starting while in gear.

They had the bike for 6 hours when they called me and informed me that it was the left switch pack that was the problem and they did not have one in stock and they were on backorder from HD as there is a problem with these parts so it will take a while to get the part. I WAS LIVID. Once I got done chewing on the guy that called me I asked for the service manager, once he got on I as calmly as I could I explained to them that my trike was in their shop for 1 1/2 weeks the last time I wanted this problem fixed and they insisted that it shouldn't start in gear and now after I had to call HD customer service to convince them that it should I was again making the 90 mile trip home without it being fixed while my 20 year old daughter is cringing in her seat as she is driving me back to the shop.

She dropped me off and did not want to go in so she went back to her dorm.

Once inside I met the service manager he said he would have one of his guys come pick my bike up and haul it to the shop when the part came in and I explained that my bike will not come back in the shop for the same problem a 3rd time. He then offered to send his shop foreman to my house when the part came in to install it and then offered a $100 dollar gift card for all the trouble.

I went with that now we will see when the part comes in whether it actually gets fixed.

I made him well aware that I usually do most of my own service but that there are some things I just will not touch and I also need a place to get warranty work done.

I also made him aware that there are 3 other fully capable shops actually closer to my house than their and the only reason I was going there is their sales and parts people have treated me better than the other shops but bad service will drive me to another.

The Saga continues.

These parts are JUNK IMO

Mine went SOUTH on my 15 along with the Thottle by wire, another klunker part from our friends at Delphi South of the border in MEXICO

TOO bad Trump was not in charge then, maybe Delphi would ah could ah stayed here and NOT bought back from bankruptcy by GM with our dollars , This is just my BAD opinion of JUNK parts

[MikeyTX]

And if it weren't Delphi, it would be someone else making them for Harley that is located other than USA.

[Jack Klarich]

Yup, but Delphi is the leader in parts for a lot of car and bike parts, that said Amerika should nothave to keep bailing out companies that off shore the parts and jobs? Hd has done this to keep the bean counters happy and raise the price of products The Amerikan dream gone South again I guess

Sounds like maybe you should move ............... The hermit kingdom comes to mind. Unless I'm mistaken, a rather large majority of the products we use in our daily lives either comes from or are made up in part of foreign content. Want to know why ? Because the frik'n unions in this country have priced themselves out of the labor market. There are 385 + drivers and support staff on the street because the drivers at my former employer's S CA facility voted to join the teamsters. We were paid above scale and had better h&w benefits. But no, the slackers wanted the perceived protection they thought the union would give them from being written up for damaging company equipment. They got protection all right. It's called no job. The company simply did away with the dedicated corporate fleet. I watched 6 weeks of annual paid leave and other perks go down the tubes because a group of 35 drivers and mechanics drank the kool aid served up by the teamsters recruiters.

I agree...

If Walmart had an aisle with just American made products no one would shop that aisle

Because the next aisle has cheaper imports...

To Quote Pogo......We have met the enemy and he is ...Us......
