G'day all,

Can someone tell me if there is a procedure to follow when changing the battery on an 03




It will crank but I'm not getting spark & work start

When you go to start it the right indicator flashes???

It won't cancel when you hit the right button but will cancel when you hit the left?

The front indicators also stay on??

I'm guessing its an alarm issue??

 

Wish I could Help , When I change a battery I don't do anything but put the New Battery in , and Ride . I do have the alarm system.

 

Before disconnecting the battery, disable the security by going to the transport mode. Instructions in owners manual. If you disconnect the battery without going to transport mode, it will activate security and siren if installed.

 

I don't know how old yours is, but I just installed the latest version SmartSecurity module (p/n 41000021B) & siren this last summer on a Slim.

If I want to pull my battery all I need to do to disable the alarm and siren is to turn the ignition on, then disconnect the battery.
No siren.

 

I have an '03 Fatbou with an alarm. When it can time to change the battery, I just disconnected the old battery and replaced with a new. Have not had any problems. Are you sure you have made every connection to the battery?

 

The problem is that the battery went totally flat during transport & I don't have an owners manual

 

All I did was take out teh battery and put in the new when I had the smart siren on my softail. Never had a problem. Make sure the alarm is off before pulling the battery is all.

 

Wish that was the case

For some reason the right indicator stays on (flashing) when I turn the ignition key


Any other thoughts??

 

Try checking it for any codes in all the modules. If there are try clearing them and then see what happens.

 

How would I do this?
