ECM Replacement?
Just a curious question: Have any of you had to have your ECM replaced because of a piggy back unit? I have been told that dealers replace ECM's due to some of the in-line tuners.

I ran V&H fuelpak on my 07 Night Train for 2 years with no issues. The only problem I had with it was the heat...from running lean. I'm looking into TMAX with autotune or Power Commander V with autotune now for my 09 Street Glide... That way I can richen things up and bring down the temps.

I have been running a PCIII on mine since May 2007 (2 months after bringing her home) - no issues with it what so ever.

In all the reading I've done on the site, I've not seen anyone report having to replace ECM due to an in-line fuel module. About the closest thing I can recall is a guy having to replace the wiring harness because the pins were falling out. I didn't search for the thread on this, but the dealership said that he had installed the fuel pack incorrectly and it screwed up the harness.

I have not seen anything on this forum either but I have read about it on another forum. Some guy actually claimed he replaced 2 ECM's due to one of the piggy back tuners. Most on here speak very highly of the PC's and that is what I am considering but I certainly don't want to have ECM issues with a new bike.
