SOB its still not fixed
Dealer just replaced my induction module after ther conferred with a engineer at HD. I had similar symptoms like stuck high idle and non-responsive throttle but my bike would not respond to the re-set procedure with the ignition switch cycle and supposedly flashed codes that directed techs to module. I picked it up yesterday from dealer and rode 50 miles to work and it seemed to run good. 9 hours later after work I started it and the cold high idle ran much higher than it used too. I didnt think much of it. But when I got home and idled in the garage I heard a new noise. A constant loud hissing from only the left side of the engine directly in the vinicinty of the module they replaced. It sounds just like a vacuum leak from a loose hose on a chevy-V8. I ruled out the filter shell replacement. And the vacuum sucking noise goes away when you gas it, than comes right back on deceleration, exact same as manifold vacuum. Called dealer and the service writer talked to the 2 techs that worked on my bike and relayed back to me that they need to see the bike again so I have to take it back. I have to work today and cant get it back to dealer until Tuesday. I was so pissed I rode it to work today anyways and at a traffic light the idle stuck at 1800 rpm, I went to the next stop light and the idle was normal-WTF?? I have been very patient, even gave a 18 pack of coors to the services writer and a 18'er to the 2 techs. But this is getting old. Sorry, I just had to vent a little.
