HD Audio by Rockford Fosgate Stage II Install Issue
Just installed the new HD audio by RF Stage II fairing speakers and amp in 2021 RGS using supplied install kits. Instructions are terrible and can only find 1 install video (by RF) that is minimally detailed at best. Problem is I get no sound out of the speakers. Tried to do setup using the HD audio app but get no White noise. I checked the connections and all seem okay. Is there any way to tell if amp is getting power? Not sure what else to trouble shoot. Tried reseating the connections, checking the canbus connections in brake side cover, reseating the 40 amp fuse and Re plugging the speakers. Nothing seems to work. Also, I pluged the speakers into the original connections (bypassing the amp), I get sound. Any ideas?

[QUOTE=LouisGelinas;20033753]Yes I did, but I'm not sure inside the service cover, I have a RGS 2021 and the instructions are not very clear... in my opinion.
I bought the stage 2 with just two front speakers.[/QUOTE
i ended up getting to work. Had to take to dealer for the flash even though corporate said it didnt need the flash.
I would recommend going to Law Abiding Biker and purchasing his install video for your bike and system. They saved me so much time and I agree, the Harley instructions are the worst, meant to make you go to the dealer to install their system.
