Ignition/Tuner/ECM/Fuel InjectionNeed advice on ignition issues? Questions about a tuner? Have questions about a EFI calibration or Fuel Injection? Tips on Engine Diagnostics, how to get codes, and what they mean. Find your answers here.
Id be very careful. You have the wrong TBW sensor. Thats not for a LRS. Who knows if there are calibration differences between models. And/or pinout differences. Id get the right one before fing around with changing connectors.
I suppose that's possible, but the wires and grip are exactly the same, and this is what the dealer sent me. It's 2 black 2 white 2 red, and a b/w for heated grips. Its just the plastic 6pin connector that's different. Pretty sure the tbw for the fxdls was the same as the ones on the touring bikes, just a different molex connector, and I highly doubt there's a difference in calibration. It's just a throttle sensor. Besides every Harley is just the same parts bin **** on a different chasis. But yeah, hopefully I don't eat my words.
Talk about over complicating a system thats worked perfectly since 1903.
Now you need a senior to tell the ecm to tell a servo motor to turn.
**** just put a cable on it. When it breaks you know whats wrong and put another one on, Mind you I havent had a well maintained throttle cable break in 47 years.

Maybe, but the point is, its not the right part. throttle sensors are sensitive parts, and now you have to cut and crimp on new connectors (in Gods name don't solder!), hope you have solid connections, buy a new connector, go through all that crap when all you would need to do is plug in the right part. If you told the dealer what bike you had, and the sold you the wrong part, the "no returns on electric items" doesn't apply.
Do you really want the risk of some time down the road having a connection you made, go bad and have your motor go WOT for even the instant before the ECM detects the problem and shuts it down? A lot of bad can happen in that half a second.
But, hey, it's your bike and life. I just think you are making a mistake. Even to save the $100... I wouldn't F around with it.

The part I ordered is the right part. It's the same wiring loom, except with different 6pin connectors. Every wiring diagram and schematic for the fxdls says this. The fxdls loom with small molex 6pin connector cannot be ordered as one complete unit because the new tgs module 32700050a has replaced that version, and it's a universal part for all tbw bikes. For the fxdls the connectors have to be ordered separate, which is what I did.
If you know where to find a brand new oem fxdls tgs loom with factory 6pin connections please send me a link.
Part# 32700050A* (*) Superseded part numbers are substituted.

Strange. Both my 2019's use the small 6 place connectors. I can't understand why they would change it, or require a connector change for pretty much every newer bike. Makes no sense to me.
