passive security system not armed or operational
2011 FLTRU passive security system is inop. no brinking key on instruments and bike starts whether key fob is present or miles away. I am not getting the flashing turn signals either to indicate the passive system is armed or functional.
I have an appointment Wednesday to have dealer check it out, but some times the word here is faster than the Harley Tech"s.
regardless when I made the appointment the service manager's response was "I cant believe the bike still starts if the passive security system quit functioning."
any thoughts or prior experience with a similar problem out there??

If it has never worked I would say this is the answer. They never hooked it up to Digital Tech and Married the FOBS to the tssm. This is exactly how mine acted after I installed the TSSM and did password learn myself and before i got it to the Dealer to do Digital Tech FOB programing.

No telling how many times Ive walked away from the baike for a short while leaving it unlocked while thinking the passive secuirty system was keeping someone from cranking her up and riding off.
as for the other responses/thoughts:
I have spent hours scouring both the owner and service manual, and most definately not in trailor/transport mode.
and no I don't have a fob secretly hidden on the bike......sheesh

Well then I guess to the dealer you go to get FOBS programed at NO CHARGE since they forgot and they are the only ones that can do it.

frankly I don't know that it ever worked. probably never did and I just took it for granted as my other bikes all worked. I realized it wasn't working when I got to the gas station and gassed up and realized I didn't have my fob. I screwed around for over 20 minutes trying to manually enter my codes and only managaed to turn my flashers on a dozen times. Couldn't for the life of me figure out why it wouldn't allow me to enter my codes. In frustration I hit the starter and off I went.
Sorry this is the best news I have for you today. Good Luck. It shouldn't take them 15 min to do. Take both of your fobs, your owners manual and any other documentation that came with the fobs.
