Help, I have screwed something up......
OK, yesterday I was tinkering with my bike. 2012 FLHX, decatted, fuel moto air intake kit, wild pig slip ons w/ 2 1/2" baffles and a map from Jamie at FM. I went into the map that jamie sent (no I didnt make a copy first...) and I lowered the idle. I also somehow got into a function that had the battery listed (charging maybe?) and hit reset and saved it. I went for a short ride after that and my battery light and the motor light came on. When I got back to the house I cleared the lights (dont ask me how because I dont remeber) and hooked it up overnight to the battery tender. All was good today as the wife and I headed out for a ride. About 8-12 miles down the road, the dang lights came back on and I also noticed some decell popping. I figured that it was running off the battery and I only has a limited distance to make it home before it died. We made it home and I tried to find the battery setting in the original stock settings that I do have a copy of but could not even find where there was a charging or battery setting.
I have sent an email to Jamie and will get a new map and HOPE that fixes it. I checked my battery terminal connections and they were tight so I have it hooked up to battery tender again.
Any ideas on what the heck I have done or how I might fix this? And yes, once I get it fixed, I will not touch my power vision again!!!!!
Any suggestions greatly appreciated!!!!!!

A lot of voltage regulators going out, mine has already been changed.... did you notice what your voltmeter was reading?

where did you hit reset? was this on the pv unit itself? i can't find anything remotely akin to charging on any map that i have through winpv.
i'm thinking you just reset the trim values which would not cause any problems. i agree with the geezer, your problem lies elsewhere.
he said power vision, no pc to pull off.

it may have been a trim. I noticed a few minutes ago, my battery tender is extreemely hot so I unplugged it. It has always gotten a bit warm but this was actuallu hot. Dont know whats going on but it sounds like a dealer trip is in store soon.
I think the voltage was 12 or so while riding. It normally rides at the 14ish level.

I wouldn't try to cause and effect anything on a harley....the knowledge would not prevent anything from crapping out on a harley in the future. I filled both tires yesterday with the correct air using my 50 dollar regulated air pump. The next day my radio stopped working. I should have used a hand pump???
