Ok guys,
I finally have the Harley radio all connected (just temporarily to check operation) and have a question about the calibration.
Everything works...handlebar switches, etc. and of course I get the annoying beep every couple of seconds to let me know that the radio needs to be calibrated.
I understand that I have to take the bike to a dealership so they can hook THE BIKE up to a computer to calibrate the radio, but in looking at my wiring, I don't see how the dealership computer is going to access the radio through the bike's ECM...(IF that's what it does).
I mean...
I have constant power going to pins 10 and 20 on the 23 pin BAC connector.
I will have pin 12 connected to power that only comes on when the ignition is on.
...but I can't see how hooking up a computer to the bike's ECM is going to reach the radio through these connections.
Now, I can tell you that I DID NOT connect pin #9 which my diagram states "Speed Signal/Interconnect 156B*" because I have no idea what it's for or where to find that wire on the bike.
Could this be the wire the dealership will need to have connected?...or does the dealership simply get a code from my bike and then somehow program it into the radio?
I guess I'd have a much better idea of how this works if I knew what took place at the dealership. I just don't want to button everything up and take it to get calibrated if there's a wire I didn't connect that their computer will need to reach the radio through the ECM.
Thanks!
