Default 2009 street glide problem

I have a 2009 street glide that has a electrical problem. The bike will go into limp home mode and the dealer has not been able to find the problem. The pins on the conector that plugs into the ECM was the problem last time but it is doing it again. Anyone else having this problem??? This has been going on for a year now.

Pull the batwing off and try unplugging the fly by wire harness from the throttle put in some dielectric grease and plug it back in. Talked to a HD tech last year and he mentioned that that connection has been a common issue with it not being in tight. The grease is to help keep moisture out for the future

According to my dealer my bike is the only one they have seen with this problem. I wish they would just say they have a problem. They cover there *** so good.

Has the fitting behind your A/C had dialectic grease put on it?
I was told at my dealer that is common too, and will make your bike act that way..

Harley is now replacing the pins from the ECM with sliver type. They changed to silver in 2011 so they know it was a problem. Hope this is the fix

Don't know the code number but it was for the twist grip. Install a new one but still won't come out of limp home mode. Talked to the dealer this morning and now he has a memo form Harley about the silver pins fix. He has to order them.
