Jamie had said there are no maps for the 42 mm throttle body could that be trashing the pc?

There have been several of us here on the board who have had Power Commanders burn out. I went with the SERT.

Hey brother I know you told me about the sert along time ago. Did you get a custom map? I hope My tuner can get it right . the dealer is giving me credit on the pc but they are sending it off to the factory see what happened to it. So I have to wait a few weeks .

For your year bike , it is an absolute necessity for the rubber boot to be on correctly and dielectric grease to be used. Once harley went with the delphi, the connectors , on the ecm, were set up so they wouldn't be so susceptible to water penetration. Check the rubber boot for cracks, but mainly make sure it's on correctly. Good Luck. Relxn88
