Ok guys, here is the problem. For the 04-05 Seeg we need to unplug the white plug behind the radio.  To the right as you're looking at it w/ the fairing removed.  That is the power supply to the amp that's on the bikes allready, (that we're not using anymore) so the amp is powering down and it comes thru.  Unplug it and tie it up out of the way.  Did it after HD Dude sent me another amp and it still did the same thing.  Called the Dude and after a few minutes he figured it out.  So the amps are good.  Try that and see what happens.  Laaaaaaaaaater,  Let's Roll

pic. is of the plug that needs to be disconnected

D@mn, that easy, huh? :nixweiss: :huepfenjump3: :2vrolijk_21:

Be a couple weeks before I can try it, but nice to know it's an easy fix.

Damn Gabe; you beat me to the report :P
Glad I got it figured out, Good pic on the plug that needs to be removed. The radio does not need as it powers the added internal amp that the SEEG's have. Probably just saved an amp or two of current fdraw as well :2vrolijk_21:

I wanted the guys to hear it from the customer, to let them know what we all know about you and your service.  Great shop and customer support.  Thanks again,  Let's Roll

Happy you fellows have it figured out.

I turn my radio off before turning off the ignition and never start the bike with the radio on (same way with a car or p/u truck).  I assume this is why I have never heard the pop/crack?   :nixweiss:   Will try shutting off the ignition with radio on and see what happens.

Either way, it looks like the RH plug needs to be unhooked from the radio the next time the fairing is off.

Mine did it no matter how I turn it off, radio on or off.  Not no more.  I think the reason is
obvious, the  :bananarock: :bananarock: :bananarock: have more power and it has to release it somehow. :huepfenjump3:  Let's Roll

about that "pop" when you turn it off, one of the guys i spoke with told me to unplug the connector on the right hand side of the radio that powers the internal amplifier and runs the speakers. so i did that and taped off that inlet with a piece if duct tape.   it was easy locating the wires that were tied back for the speaker connections , and there's no "POP"at all..    Try that...they did say that if i left that plugged in there, that the new amp would not come on and i wouldn't get the benefit of the new added power....

I installed the plug n play amp this past winter and never had the amp popping noise when powering on/off even though my amp plug was still plugged into the radio as the instructions said nothing of unplugging it.  At the time of the install I found the 2nd set of speaker leads from the non amp powered side of the radio and hooked them up as instructed.

I have been happy with the sound.  Last night the outer fairing was off for the 1st time since the amp install and Jim told me by phone to unplug the amp connector from the radio even though I had no pop noise.

Now my sound is quite a bit more substantial.  I have no idea if the radio amp was still being used or somehow the output of the HW amp was restricted when the amp plug was still plugged into the radio.  Either way, I can't imagine having the 150W amp that some people have.  Thanks Jim.

Thanks Jim!


Just finished the installation of the Hawg wired 150 watt system in the Silver and Black Classic.

I fought installing that system for a long time because I had the Harley "enhanced" system with amp on the bike.

I installed the 150 watt Hawg Wired in Nancy's bike about 6 months ago and her sound was better half way up than the Harley system wide open.

The amp on my Classic went bad and that was all the excuse I needed to upgrade.

We are now a three Hawg Wired family.

Both 03's have the 150 watt system and the SERG has the 120 watt system.

Thanks Jim for selling such quality equipment.

I know people get tired of hearing how good the Hawg Wired system is but,
I have to add more.


Took the 03 Classic out tonight for some exercise.
Set on 100 mph the stereo is crystal clear and loud.
It is worlds better than the enhanced Harley system.
Installation took about two hours and is very easy.
I recommend this system to anyone that wants to upgrade to quality sound at a reasonable price.
Again, thanks Jim!
