Infotainment issues
« on: May 24, 2014, 12:10:26 AM »

First problem is either my amp or radio is cutting in and out. Secondly when I turn the ignition on, it can never remember my last audio setting. For instance I always listen to my ipod only, but when I start the bike I always end up listening to FM. It used to always jump to weather band even though my alerts were off, now it jumps to FM????

First thing to do is to make sure your system has the latest software updates installed.  Harley is now like your computer and phone companies; always having to provide updates to fix the stuff they didn't take the time to get right the first time.  You can actually download the updates from the Harley website and install them yourself if you want, or you can have your dealership do it for you.

I have never seen this.  I read early on that some of the systems had issues but those were resolved. I would make sure you have the latest software and then if it still happens take it to the dealer. It could be a ground issue or the unit itself has a loose connection. I have hit some big holes, road in the rain, road in 20 degree weather and some 90+ weather and my display has been flawless so far!

It seems like if you are really pumping out the music,like 3/4 it sounds like it clips. On top of everything else, I'm back to the WB when I turn it on. I forgot to mention yes I have done the latest update.

Bought my bike last October, so it was one of the early versions. Infotainment has worked perfect until the last four days on a trip. Started doing the same thing you described. Plus, my mike quit working and was getting lots of static. Taking it back ot the dealer soon to check it out.

How do I set the FAV button to my music on my iPhone? It seems the only thing that buitton is good for is setting to the tuner.

When I read all the posts about the new infotainment system the first thing that pops into my mind is the "Not Ready for Prime Time" players.  This is getting to be ridiculous.  Every new item Harley puts on their bikes (new to them, not to the rest of the industry) makes it to the consumer with multitudes of issues, most of which would have shown up immediately if the MoCo actually did any testing of the finished products before they dumped them onto the dealers and customers.  Obviously it doesn't embarrass them at all when we talk about having to be uncompensated beta testers for them.

I've been thinking hard about a new CVO Limited, but for 40K, the radio better work or I ain't biting.  Enuf said.

My FAV button works fine.  Just to verify that it is set correctly - tune the stereo to your favorite station/channel (tuner or SiriusXM) or playlist/genre/etc. (iPod or other device) and then press and hold the FAV button for a few seconds.  The screen will change and the heading will say something like Select Favorite or Favorite Selection or something like that, with a list of options below.  The top option should be the station/channel/playlist/etc. that you're currently listening to.  Press that top option on the screen or with the selection button on the right handlebar and your FAV button should be set.

Yes, that's correct.  The software 'Fav' button on the home screen gives you a list of 6 presets and the hardware 'FAV' button on the face of the radio takes you directly to the one favorite that you configure it to.
