yah me too jgreene. after this all gets resolved im only riding my bike. no more tinkering or ever washing it again.

 

Have you tried just taking it off and riding without it? Theres a very slim chance that it will hurt anything. Im not a person that believes a tuner is "necessary". I run a powervision for performance reasons, but went stage 1 for a long time without it with no problems. Assuming of course you have a closed loop system.
First thing I would try is taking it off and wiring it back the way it came stock and see if all is back to normal.

 

yah rle i could do that but im already out a new harness and labor so i went ahead and put another one on it since it will be waranted this time by harley. i guess i just thought whats another 300 bones when im already out over a grand.

 

Glad I found saw this thread. I've been running a PCV for over two years without an issue. Now that I'm looking to get the motor built and talking to tuners I've been hearing the PC has a high failure rate on Harleys. EVERYONE I've talked to since moving to Colorado swears by Direct Link. I had never heard of it until I got here. I'll be buying one of their tuners soon.

 

I'm in the market for a tuner, XIED's aren't cutting it. I see a lot of issues on the forum, but I don't see how it's so hit or miss. I'd rather spend $300 for a warrantied product than $600 for a high-end tuner and $600 for dyno time.

Sorry to thread jack but are there more or less issues when you compare the PCIII to the PCV?

 

from what i have read all over the internet they both get water in them. dynojet has chimed in on a couple of threads and blames it on the harness boot and not the boot on the pc. ill make sure i get back to yall as soon as i find out the whole problem.

 

Just to balance the scales a little, I have two bikes, one with a PCIII and the other with a PCV. Combined I have about 12 years and over 100,000 miles on them without a glitch. I wouldn't hesitate one moment buying either of them again, although if I were buying a tuner today it would be a PV.

The problem discussed in this thread, moisture in the connector, can't be blamed on the PC. It's more than likely an install and/or exposure problem.

Regardless, hope the OP gets straightened out soon.

 

Could always get a powervision. Probably won't get water in it while it's safely in it's box in the house

 

Same thing happened to me so I just went with SERT. My bike runs a lot better now than it ever did with the Power commander. Don't sell the bike it's sweet and looks like you put a lot of love into it.

 

First sorry to hear your troubles bro..I have fought with many things on my 2010 SB. So I have been reading this post tonight while at work and figure what the hell. I came home took of my PCV not knowing what to exspect and took her for a ride down the rode. Know I have V&H short shots and an Arlen Ness super sucker. I will have to say I am a very happy with the bike running with the stock set up. It was cooler tonight and the bike wanted to run like a rapped ape and it actually sounded better to me. I will have to ride her in the hot temps and see what I get.
I have been to the point of saying F it and getting ride of the bike due to the **** I had to go throught to get it right, but it is well worth it when I am out there enjoying the ride..Hope u get it right soon man.
