The procedure to disarm the alarm has nothing to do with the code you are asked for when first starting the bike. If you want to be able to arm the alarm by using the fob and do not want the alarm to arm when you remove the keys from the ignition then you must perform the below sequence.
1. Start the engine, then shut it off. Set the manual alarm by pushing the key fob button within a few seconds of shut down. The system is now fully armed.
2. Immediately after arming it (the book says within 10 seconds) turn the key on, the alarm will beep once.
3. Push the arming button on the key fob 4 times. The bike will make a sound you never heard before (the book calls it a Boop) 4 times. This confirms that you did it right. If you don't hear 4 Boops, start over again.
4. Turn the key Off. The system is now ready for reprogramming.
5. Turn the key on then off 7 times and then one more time ON (a total of 8 turn-ons). The LED on the side panel (the "real" alarm indicator) should be on.
6. Press the key fob arming button twice. You should hear the weird Boop noise again, confirming the action.
7. Turn the ignition Off and then press the key fob button one last time to exit reprogramming mode.
The red blinker on the dash will continue to blink (it's a decoy and has nothing to do with the actual alarm system), but the Real alarm LED, on the front of the left side panel, will remain off. The alarm will now NOT automatically set. However, if you want to set the full alarm, just use the button.
Of Note, this is best done by having someone read you the steps quickly as you perform the steps. Speed in conducting the steps are key. It did take me a few attempts but i did get it. I now do not have to worry about the alarm, however i can use the FOB to arm the alarm if i want to.
I think Tourings come with the alarm installed, Customs don't
MikeBike,
- Click on RESOURCES at the top,
- go to page #9,
- download the ' 2014 CAL14 SERVICE 2014-07-14' manual. PDF file.
- once downloaded go to page 354 of the manual,there you can see a much clearer photo of the one I posted above.
It's installed on my bike and if you have any questions PM me.
PS. The white plug in photo#1 unplugs and that is where the alarm plugs in.
There is better explanation of the procedure here. It is the same as the manual - just easier to grasp.FirstMG,
Thanks for the quick response, and for making the effort to scan the two relevant pages and send along. I have retrieved my 'alarm manual' for the 1400's side case and checked out the multi-step procedure as shown in your gracious reply.
Got it "wissing", thanks!There is better explanation of the procedure here. It is the same as the manual - just easier to grasp.
