Good 5 digit code easy to remember is your ZIP code, or first 5 or last 5 of your SSN...just saying.
Found this out the hard way...
That works fine as long as you don't have any zeros in your zip or SSN.
Security module will only accept numbers from 1 - 9 for each digit of the code.
Is your system working correctly? If I even sit on my bike without the FOB the lights start flashing, don't stop until the bike is perfectly still, then start flashing again with any motion.
Engrave a number for code on bike someplace different and hard to see
or just use the last five digits of your vin (you can add one to all number, or in reverse order, or... to add another level of security) that way you do not need to engrave a number.
Here's a tip that I use. Most of us always have our phones with us so what I did was create a new contact in my phone with the first name "security" and last name "bypass" and entered my 5 digit code as the phone number. Now all I have to do is pull out the phone and look up the phone number for my old high school buddy Security Bypass!
I thought that too. For some reason the bike started with the spare fob at least 18' away behind a closed garage door. The main fob was even further away on the 2nd floor of the house. Go figure!
