OK, has anybody tried the SE ignition module in their 06 883? I got model#31784-04A Plugged it in, and now you have to go through a password learning bunch of crap. My unit does not seem to be doing what the directions say it's supposed to do. "HELP"

 

OK, for those of you that might try to install a different ignition module in your Sportster, YOU DO have to go through a setup to get the computer "brain" to load up the "new" ignition module. The included instructions that came along with my Screaming Eagle module # 31784-04A, and all of the forum information I could find, state a series of on and off with the key, pressing the left turn signal twice, etc. etc. (LISTED BELOW) On my setup, nothing acted as the instructions said they would act. I finally followed the steps, but here's the thing, DISREGUARD THE 10 MINUTE CYCLE AND WAITING FOR THE LIGHTS TO GO OFF OR ON ETC. FOLLOW THE STEPS, BUT FOR EACH 10 MINUTE CYCLE, WAIT 15 OR 20 MINUTES, go watch some TV or bang the ole lady. Then do the off and on thing, and wait another 15 or 20 or so, and after three of these cycles, then do the off/on, wait about 10 seconds, turn it off, wait about a minute, turn it back on,and it should be done. It is a real P.I.T.A. Harley is going to loose their *** if they don't change their ways. "MARK MY WORDS" The days of throwing a screwdriver, pair of pliers, a spark plug wrench and a plug or two, in your little leather thingie, and taking off for a cross country trip, are over, unless you like sitting on the side of the road waiting/hopeing that a wrecker shows up to take you to the nearest authorized "Stealership"[8D]
