Please help

Hello all, I realize I am brand new here and already begging for help but it would be greatly appreciated. My 06 Ultra HK radio is displaying error code B2006 after I do the diao check on it. The volume adjust works just fine but when I push in the Audio button in I cant get my bass, treb, fade......settings to display. Does anyone have any idea what I can try to fix the problem?

I'm not a tech, but there seem to be very few issues with the HK system that can be fixed w/o replacing parts. If your bike has seen a fair amount of use, I'd suspect the switch is bad which seems to be what your code is saying. You should also check-out the wires exiting the switch housing for a pinched wire. If you have the service manual, you can identify the wire colors for the audio switch--the insulation is very thin and easily cut to create a short from the wire to the housing.

I have a 2006 Road Glide the display comes on with a radio station no sound. None of the switches or buttons work I cannot eject the cd. Can this be repaired or should I throw it in the trash.

I have not been able to diagnose an issue with the radio on my '09 Ultra Classic. As far as I can see, it is not covered in this thread.

After the Ultra Classic sits for various length of time. Sometimes only after one day, the radio defaults to channel 1 when the ignition is turned on. The preset buttons are still set when this happens and channel 1 is not one of the preset channels.

It's one of those issues that the dealer can not reproduce.

I'm having a problem with my Intercom on my 2007 Electra Glide UC. The drivers mic does not work, passenger's mic works and when I switch helmets the drivers mic works on the passengers plug in. Anyone have any answers?
