Default Strange audio problem

Just purchased a 13 FLHTK... when I plug my iPhone or iPod nano into the aux jack I only get sound from the left speakers... this is my first bike with a fairing so I am not sure if this is normal or not... anyone else ever experience this?

If you are using the same lead for both then the lead is likely faulty, if different leads then it is an issue with the jack.

Probably a bad cable. Try a new, high quality one. If that isn't it then it could be the AUX input in the radio. If that turns out to be the case it a warranty repair.

Check your balance settings. I know it sounds obvious but I have done this. Also make sure plug is fully seated.
