Cool

They should be telling you! They also have access to the experts at the Mothership to call upon. Hopefully another member is more expert than the dealer and will call by soon.....

Is there a "rest of the story"? Is this a replacement TSSM off Ebay or something, or is this the unit that came with the bike?

Could just be a case of "infant mortality", a bad unit right out of the box. Eventually they will try a second unit and if it doesn't work, they will move on to your ECM.

Might be because they had different system back in 2007 than today. The fobs were different back then I believe with buttons to arm system and it is now a proximity system. That is about the year for change over. Just a guess.

I was thinking o7 was the first year of proximity.
Ive got a tssm, ecm and fob for sale, they are all married, from an o6. It's push button.
