Default EITMS Question

I have a question regarding the EITMS. I noticed that the EITMS on my 2015 Tri Glide Ultra is in disable mode and it won't go into enable mode. The cruise control light doesn't flash green or orange per the owners manual. With that said, I have made the following stage 2 performance upgrades:

Thunder max tuner
Upper engine work (heads, pistons, cams, pushrods, etc)
Exhaust
Air box.

Are any of these mods the reason that the EITMS is no longer working or needed? Just curious. Not that I would have it enabled anyway.

Thanks for your feedback.

Isn't Thundermax a replacement ECM not a piggy back or flash tuner? If so the EITMS software has been removed with the factory ECM.

The Thundermax does replace the OEM ECM. Your thoughts was what I was thinking but wanted to confirm that with others that are using the Thundermax.

Thanks for responding

Yes you changed the ECM to aftermarket so now read the Thundermax instructions for anything ECM related as the the stock manual covers the stock ECM
