    Bad Mechanic

    I made a cable for my stock ecm but its a new ebr ecm now. Since its still under warranty I need to have it set at the dealership or buy EBR software. A mechanic explained how they punch in the VIN. Digital technician connects to Harley servers and EBR will know if I had it set at the...

    Bad Mechanic

    This guy is no shade tree mechanic. Its a legit shop around here. They think very highly of themselves. I brought it in because the idle went crazy, it was very high. And he tore it all apart said it needed a new crankshaft. So we had it trued and put in. And 4500 dollars and 2400 miles later...

    Bad Mechanic

    Ya it has the ebr race ECM installed recently. When I take it in for TPS reset ill ask the techs what the actual temp is. He's just guessing he has no idea if its hot. When I dropped it off we thought it had an oil leak. Long story short, he said if the gasket failed hed buy it if it was cooked...

    idle climbs up and down

    i guess it cud just b tps setting. maybe the ecm is trying to adjust for it being off zero. but seems like if that was the case it would stop somewhere and level off but what do i no.

    idle climbs up and down

    has anyone ever had this issue ? doesn't matter warm or cold, bike idles around 1000rpm then slowly climbs to about 1500 right before dropping back down to 1000rpm. over and over it does probably need a tps reset. but would that cause that problem if it was off? it is a new ebr ecm. im just...

    Cuts out, loss of power between 4k-5k only?? Please help

    You can check the intake leaks by spraying the throttle body seals w WD40 or a propane torch (unlit obviously) if there is a leak the idle should jump up. I fixed a leak around my TPS sensor yesterday using the WD40 to discover. Its a bit messy. I'm going to test again w propane.

I feel like it cud be smoother 1st thru 3rd at lower speeds. But that cud be TPS reset or maybe plugs or...

    TPS Sensor ohms test, replacement info

    It didn't help to replace the sensor other than piece of mind moving forward. It was a bad ecm. Plus I had an intake leak around the TPS. The rpms jumped up whenever I shot it with wd40. I also had the timing advanced just a bit so I corrected that too.

    new ebr ecm

    Yeah thanks noone, I'm not going to try it. I was already warned. I just took it to a good mechanic who used to work on buells at the dealership and unfortunately unless you buy the software from buell or take it to a dealership you should not reset tps. Even he just said he would not reset my...

    new ebr ecm

    Yes I know. I have ecmspy for my stock ecm. The tps stays the same. Its keeps it until you set it. Just like it stores fuel maps and afv and trouble codes.
