I have a 2005 FLHTI with an older Biketronics kit... it was on there when I bought it... problem is somehow I activated the AVC, and I HATE it... I have been unable to deactivate it or reach Biketronics support... It is a Sony GT-CDX400... any ideas? I did it somehow through the handlebar controls...

 

your right handle bar control lower button push on it till u see avc (automatic volume control) then push up or down till u see off and your done. thats how mine is but i have a 2009 flhx not sure if yours is the same.

 

It's your left handlebar control,...I believe. ( That's what mine is)

 

On my 07 Road Glide when you have AVC on the screen you turn it down with the volume control untill it says OFF.

 

Just got this from the service manual:

2. Push the LO/DX button on the front panel of the radio
three times to sequence to the model year configuration
screen. “Press 1 for bikes before MY2004, press 2 for
MY2004 and later” is displayed in the upper portion of
the LCD display, while the current selection is displayed
in the lower portion. If the number displayed is not correct,
simply change the display by pressing the appropriate
preset button. Entering the wrong digit will adversely
affect AVC operation.

3. Push the LO/DX button two more times to sequence to
the AVC adjustment screen. The letters “AVC” are displayed
in the upper portion of the LCD display, while the
automatic volume level number appears in the lower portion.
See Figure 6-16.

4. To ramp the AVC up, press the Mode Select Switch on
the right handlebar in an upward direction (UP). To ramp
the AVC down, press the switch in a downward direction
(DN). Although the factory presets the volume level at
number “2,” it is adjustable from “0” (AVC least aggressive)
to “4” (AVC most aggressive). Any adjustment
affects the AVC schedules of both headset and external
speakers.

5. After making the desired change, continue pushing the
LO/DX button until the system reverts back to normal
radio operation. The Diagnostic Mode also can be exited

by simply turning the Ignition/Light Key Switch to OFF.

Hope it works on your bike' but maybe not with that Biketronics.

iam not sure what side its on but thats how mine works.

 

push the handlebar volume button in for 2 seconds then push volume button up or down quickly......it will change avc from several different settings to off......or disconnect your battery for one second or more and the avc turns off

 

Push the volume control button in and hold for 2 sec or more, turns the Biketronics AVC off. Wait at least 4 sec after doing this.

 

Some of these replys are for HD radios.

For the Biketronics radio, turn the radio on, press in and hold the volume button for at least ten seconds. If you let go now and wait a couple of seconds the AVC will be off. The AVC is easily adjusted by immediately after releasing the the volume button pushing the volume button up. Each time you push it up you'll get a different AVC setting. The more times you push it up, the more radical the volume change will be. The factory setting is 3 pushes up and I think the max is 5 up. There is NO display on the radio. Play with a little and I think you'll come to like having AVC.
