i have an 07 night train and it works awesome but lately when i sit on it and try to start it the blinkers will flash and i have to turn the switch off and try again a few times for it to start, this just started happening, any ideas what would cause this.

 

The battery in your remote is going dead.

 

Yup, that's it alright. When ever my bike starts to do that, I just pop into Radio shack and grab a new battery for the fob and the problem goes away.

 

How long do those Batteries last? I've got 2 years on mine. Is that getting old??

 

Two batteries were only about $3. I just replaced my two year old batteries before they went dead.

 

Manual says replace them once a year. I go two but I also know my overide code if they go dead.

 

Don't place the battery up side down + needs to go down. ;-)

 

I have horrors of getting caught out so I carry an extra battery.

 

Huh<

well, i guess i might need a new battery...

are they constantly drawing, or only when near the bike?

thanks

Anyone who has an FOB should know how to start the bike without it, I carry the wallet card you get in your bike's factory manual you get with the bike. If you don't have one, the dealer will give you one as it gives you step by step instructions. Factory default code is 11111 so make sure to change it to your own personal ID number. the batteries are small enough that you could carry one on your bike somewhere but that could be seen as being ****.

$1.50 a year for batteries is pretty cheap!!!
