Angry Alarm problem

I've had my 2012 Wide Glide laid up a few months and now I have to enter the pin every time I try to start it. Otherwise the alarm sets off. I tried renewing the fob batteries but it won't play. It starts OK if I switch on and enter the pin and occasionally I see the message on the display: 'No Fob' while I'm riding it. Any ideas appreciated.

antenna/wires may have come loose. Or fobs need to be paired again.. the antenna rests under the set. Take a look at the connections...

look for this guy:


the dealer probably will not charge you to pair/re-pair your fobs

Check the easy stuff first. Make sure the battery is not upside down in the fob.

You can also pull the main fuse out, and put the main fuse in again this resets the fobs, cannot see why they would need pairing again, I have left battery out of my ride many times over winter, never had a problem, except when battery in Fob was toast.
