Check FOB battery first then you can connect FP3 then go to "Customer Support" and press "Upload ECU Content" along with VIN - they can then diagnose and help you.
Wiring diagram shows the Jiffy Stand Sensor to be on European models. To confirm you can do a visual check to see if a sensor is connected to your Jiffy Stand.
yes i watch that video , thank you . i contacted V&H and went over it with them and the FP3 did something to my ECM ! nice i paid 399 for this thing and it miss up my ECM . they sent me a over night label for UPS and they said they will fix it , hopefully !!!! now my bike is down for probably for a week or more !
well i sent vance and hines my ECM along with the FP3 , it went over night they got it and email me saying they fix it and ship it back to me over night and i got the ECM back today , THEY SENT ME THE WRONG ECM !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
hang in there!!! They will make it right! Plus you'll chuckle about this over a beer. in a few months! or years!!
all part of being a bike owner!!! Sucks at times, but it's all part of the deal...
