After installing turn signal module
I lost my key fob last summer on my 2011 road king. Had the wrong code for security system. Had to either buy a new security system or get turn signal module without security system plug in. Put it in the garage till just recently installed the turn signal module that eliminates the security system after installation I put brand new battery in. Held the run button and for a second sounds like it fires up but immediately it dies out. I checked for spark doesnt seem to have any. Fuel pump sounds on when I turn ignition. Any suggestions would b much appreciated.

My suggestion is to take it to a dealer and have them fix it.

Even though you replaced your TSSM (turn signal security module) with a TSM (turn signal module), the module itself has to be married to the ECM or it WILL NOT run...
The procedure is a long, with specific timed steps.... or... it can be done by a dealer with their Digital Tech computer... the dealer will usually require proof of ownership on the bike before doing this for you...
It is made that way, so people can't just steal a bike with a security system, spend 20 minutes swapping out a $250 part, then have a perfect (albeit stolen) running Harley...
yes i did the exact steps and seemed to do as described,until I came to the same conclusion the other guy did,was thinkin fuel pump also,thats why I am very interested in this,thanks anyway!!

Are you are saying that you changed your TSSM to a TSM and now the bike won't run??? .... but you are thinking maybe you have a bad fuel pump....??
If you did not marry the new TSM to the ECM, the issue IS NOT your fuel pump....
While it is always possible for a fuel pump to go bad at anytime, if you did not marry the new TSM to your ECM, then that is the reason your bike isn't running right now...
If there are other reasons you believe the fuel pump is bad, you can diagnose that, after you get the new TSM/ECM talking to each other and the bike is up and running...
Good luck with your repair...
