Hi all... new member of the site and I need your help.
My 85 yr old father in law rides a Harley trike that he purchased used from a dealer. He has a bad habit of sticking the fob in his pants pocket and it apparently fell out on a short ride from his friend's house to his house.... and he only received one fob with the purchase of the bike. He purchased a new fob and took it to an Harley repair shop to program; however, the previous owner must have changed the PIN. We contacted the dealer where the bike was purchased and they had recently updated their computers and no longer have the previous owner information (what?!). We were going to try to contact the previous owner and see if they remembered the PIN. Both Harley and the repair shop are telling us that we need to by a brand new ECM (?) to the tune of nearly $300 because they are unable to reset the PIN. Have you heard of any other way around this?
