Default new guy with new audio

hey guys first off im new here i have a 2014 flhx charcoal pearl ive had since last october. this winter i upgraded to stage 2 fairing and saddle bag speakers with a amp in fairing and a amp in saddlebag. yesterday i was checking for codes and found i have a u0185 under the radio section. i searched around for the code meaning and it says it means lost communication with amp one. does anyone have any insight on this? is this normal since i changed so much from the factory system? or does it have to go back to the dealer? thanks guys

Have you had any issues with your stage II setup? Do the speakers ever cut out when you play the radio at/or near full volume?

I know this is old but did you ever figure this out. I am getting the weird "boop boop" noise also, now I have no sound and the U0185 error code shows up when I look at DTC's?

When you view the code press the "i" button on the screen and it will show a description of the code.
