AVC - NOT WORKING?

AVC - NOT WORKING?
Hi, I purchased a second hand 2006 FLHT from a dealership that had installed a harley CD/Radio for the previous owner on the bike. I have since fitted a Harley cruise control system and it works absolutely perfect (initiation setup completed).
However what I have noticed is that the AVC is not functioning (although everything else on the bike is) and cannot be called up on the radio diagnostic system.
Before I try to get a replacement set to see if there is a fault with player I was wondering if somewhere I have missed a trick and not made a connection which is the link between the bikes speed and the radio?
When I fitted the cruise control the instruction that came with the part said that there was an additional black wire and this should be taped up out of the way?
I owned an Ultra before so I understand how the system is supposed to work?
Grateful for any suggestions (keep em clean).

RE: AVC - NOT WORKING?
Funny...I didn't even know I had the AVC until I read the owners manual. I was pretty amazed that a bike could have speed sensitive volume control. All I know about it is that you can turn it from hi, to low and off using the handlebar controls. Sorry I couldn't be more help.

RE: AVC - NOT WORKING?
i have an 05 and my AVC resets back to default anytime I disconnect the battery. Unfurtunately the 05 radio is different so I don't know if the instructions will work or not. Here are the steps for the 05. I guess it's worth a try.
1. Press and hold any 2 preset buttons on the radio panel while turning the igition switch on. ( initions or access)
2. Press the Lo/Dx button to cycle through the Diagnostics screens. Sopt at the AVC Screen.
3. Use the MODE SEL switch on the handle bar controls to adjust the AVC Up or Down. High level - more compensation
4. After selection AVC Level press Lo/Dx button until receiver reverts back to normal radio operation.
I'm sure someone will speak up if this is will not work for an 06.

RE: AVC - NOT WORKING?
My volume control on my 06 is a bit tricky too. Here's what I did and it seems to do the trick for me. I get the bike up to about 70mph with the radio on but the volume turned all the way down. Then get to my avc setting and put it on the highest setting, while still keeping your speed up turn the volume up as high as you can before things start to distort. For some reason, at least on my bike it seems to fix my volume problems. Hope this helps.
