Me too, see I'm not the only throttle bliper around here.
The old ones relied on ET. The 14s come in based on AT.

check your owners manual, kicks in at 284 degrees, I'm surprised that you missed this one.

Touring (except FLHR, FLHRC, FLHR CVO FLHRSE AND FLHTCUTG: AAT sensor exceeds 80 degrees F
FLHR, FLHRC, FLHR CVO, FLHP AND FLHTP : ET sensor exceeds 288 F
So Safetyman didn't miss this one, he quoted what his model does.

This information reportedly came straight from the MOCO and EITMS was changed in the 14s from previous years.
And then there's this:
This from HD - TT430: TWIN-COOLED SYSTEM DIAGNOSTICS dated 27 September 2013;
Note that EITMS (rear cylinder cut-out) uses ambient air temperature monitored by the sensor on the left side of the steering head) to activate and deactivate at air temperatures above 80 °F (27 °C). EITMS is completely independent from cooling system operation.

That explains the confusion and miss information. Too bad our MOCO put out bogus info to begin with. SafetyMan, your fine record seems to be intact.

Yes it is! MoCo released the corrected info in Service Bulletin M-1351, dated September 17, 2013. The fact that you were unaware is the fault of your dealer (see attached).
