Default Linking issue with FuelPak3



Here’s the error code...I can’t find it on any forum or on V&H website.
i just got my new FP3 delivered today and after at least 30 attempts to link this thing to my ‘16 Road King, I get the same error over and over again. Have any of you heard of the error that wants you to “verify power on/engine off”? This isn’t rocket science. Think I got a bad unit? I’m going to try calling V&H tomorrow. Fingers crossed.

I'm sure V&H will be able to help you out.

I'll ask the obvious question though, do you have the kill switch turned on?

That for me is EXCELLENT customer service!!! Cheers Chris.

The 1301 error states that the internal chip had timed out, (writing the new map to the internal memory). Upon your upload we noticed that you are running an older version of iOS, (9.2.1). Whereas the current version is 9.3.1. This may be causing an issue. I suggest to update the OS and reflash the bike, also make sure your internet connection has adequate bandwidth and strength otherwise the server could time you out as well. Everything else looked good on our end.

You can also reply to my email as well.

So far, my FP3 has done everything I wanted it to do without any problems. I don't know why pro tuners hate it so much.

Vance & Hines was super helpful. It was a combo of the battery being a little low, so the FP3 couldn’t finish it’s cycle and there was a previous tune. It’s all set now and my baby is running like a dream...a big powerful, smile inducing badass dream. Thanks HD gang for jumping in.

My bike had, unbeknownst to me, a harley tuner (I forget which exactly, but it was purchased in 08) on it and my FP3 didn't seem to give a dern about it. :huh:

it will work with the Harley tuner or the mocos staged tunes but has trouble with other brand tunes that are installed.. this was the info given by V&H
when they looked in to the issue... this has happened to a few people on other sites and V&H told them to go to a dealer and have them flash the stock tune
back to the bike and then the FP3 would work

Anytime I call V&H they answer, and they adjust my map for me while I am on the phone. They even wait and make sure the new map downloaded successfully. I can't say enough about how good V&H FP3 support is.
