Hello every, Joe, living in the central valley of California. I have a 2014 HDWG with TH pipes. I just became a harley owner and bought it used. I had no problems with it until i got stuck in traffic leaving the base. I was at a standstill on a very hot day. My bike all of a sudden shut off at idle. I pulled over to the side and cranked her back up. Got back on the road and finally made it off base. As i went to pass a car, i throttled up and it stalled out, watched the speedo go to zero and shoot back up. Im sure it cranked itself back up due to the speed. I continued on, and as i made a right turn lo on idle it died on me again. Made it home and checked the codes. It popped a B1632 with a PN of 34271-12A. Did some research on the forum and decided to clean the IAC valve. Took it for a ride and no codes. Continued riding throughout the week, and it happened again. Now its almost constant and it seems to happen when the I've got her nice and warm, maybe 15 minutes in to a ride. I found out the 34271-12A is the map Harley installed prior to my purchase. So my question is, has anyone had this problem before? what was the fix, or does anyone have any suggestions? Will a re-map be required? and if i bought it in April, will Harley re-do the map free of charge, it was a used bike. any help or suggestions with this would help. Thanks again

Welcome to the Forum from Kansas!

You could see if the dealership would doing anything or get a FP3 Fuel Pak. Hopefully that's all that is wrong with it.

Was a free flowing air filter also installed? If not, sounds like you don't have the correct tune installed.

The dealer will remap your motorcycle as long as you pay them money to do that.

As far as your intermittent cutting out, start by checking to see if the battery cables are tight. They may be loose enough to make the motor cut out from the vibrations but tight enough to start the bike. Also go around and check to see that all the plugs are in all the way.
