Hey guys,
I finished getting everything installed and operational in my 2015 Ultra, but I noticed I don't have tone control (bass/treble) functioning in the HU. I do have fader and left/right working. I did a reset on the HU and still got the same result.
I have dual biketonics linelevers going into dual Cerwin Vega amps.
Any thoughts?
Check your phase inputs you may have something crossed. The LL on the top has the RCA's red to white and white to red try swapping and see if you get tone control back
So you are saying the latest and greatest BT355 may be conflicting with the stock HU and disabling the tone controls on the HU?
I don't see how that could be as the LL is down stream from the HU
No idea about the specifics. Sure the OP could search "tone control" and educate us about his findings. All I am remembering is that a couple of Rushmore folks have had this same problem lately and in the one or two cases where guys reported back, they stated that BT Mike hooked them up. I know one for sure was a FedEx of new BT355 and whala!!!

Just to clarify a couple of things. The stock HU doesn't have left/right balance controls. Only fade to front and rear speaker on the Ultra.
When you say there is no tone control (bass/treble) do the bass and treble sliders move back and forth on the screen with the controls?
Or do they move back and forth and you can't hear the tone change?
Hey Bertk... On the HU I can slide the bass/treble back and forth on screen but can't hear any difference and also I have the speed control turned all the way up, yet the volume does not change when I am at low speeds or high speeds riding.
Ragzs.. I was actually thinking along those lines. I will try swapping the RCAs on the LL. I also wanted to go through and check the individual speakers to make sure I have the positive and negatives correct.

This sounds more like a Flash or Software update issue.
Is the HU flashed to a stock Ultra, 0 amps 4 speakers?
What is the software version installed?
If the software version has been changed was the HU reset?

I had a similar condition but mine was a harness with a bad phase just looking at the picthe visible LL the rca are swapped if they are the same at the amp then it wouldn't matter I noticed to that the amps 180 from each other on the inputs which is probably fine but I'm thinking it's a phase problem. One speaker out of phas and tone control goes away on a rushmore. Ŕt least it did with mine.
