Default Programming a Personal Code

Has anyone successfully programmed a 5 digit personal code using the left and right turn signal switches as described in the owners manual? I have an 06 Road King and have never programmed a personal code. I decided to finally program a code and of course it doesn't work for me. All I get is the hazards blinking. If someone could walk me through the procedure I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks

I programmed mine and didn't remember any issues, be sure to hold them down long enough to start the process.

If no one else chimes in, I can go through it when I get home from work

Checked my book and it still works....for mine anyway....

Ignition, off, ignition, off, ignition wiht the key fob
Press the left turn signal 3 times (quickly and quickly after you do the ignition)
Press right turn signal once (again quickly)
Turn signals will flash and display the current pin.
Use left to cycle through numbers and right to enter each digit.
Turn ignition off as soon as you are done.

Ditto for me, I did notice that I had to make sure I pushed the turn signals all the way in.

Tried it when I first got the bike unsucessfully. But I had a buzz on. Haven't tried since.

I programed mine with little problems. I did have my son read the instructions while I programed it. I liked the odometer showing the code as I programed it.

Seems like it should be easier for us.

What is a personal code?
A code programed into your bike which can them be used to bypass the security system should you lose your key fob.


As to the OP, I programed mine in the other day with no problems.
