Well I took every thing a part and was able to fix front jack. I put too much solder lead on them. I melted them and blew them away with air compressor. It works now. However I was not able to align the orange seal perfect. So I went to local Harley dealers to check other new bikes. Guess what the new bikes' radios were not perfect neither. So I am very happy with the final result.

thx once again

Here are the pictures.

First impression on Zumo 660.
Nice unit, starts fast, good MP3 player. Easy usage.
Fairing mount, clean installation, but GPS pointed some what outward than I wanted.

Rear AUX port works better than I expected (took me another 1 hour and half).
Boom cellphone connector, It works, but cellphone volume is somewhat low.

So far so good.

Looks nice.

My experience has shown that there is a low volume issue some times and it is always assocciated with the 660.

how does the fairing mount install for the 660?

Drill a 5/16 inch (8 mm) diameter hole through the inner
fairing in the lower mounting location.
Drill an 11/16 (17 mm) diameter hole through the inner
fairing in the wire routing location.

thats a big hole for the wires

It's because of the harness and grommet.  The wire connectors on the wire ends can take up a lot of space.

trying to decide how to mount mine, but not sure i want to drill a hole that big

I'm going with the handlebar mount.  I have the HogTunes HogPod ,so fairing mount is not an option.  You can always put a plastic plug in the hole, or glue/ silicone something like the CVO coin, or a pin, get creative!  Drill a smaller hole and forget the grommet.

I posted this in a new thread as well, apologies for doubling up but it's V-day weekend and I'm on thin ice as it is.  Need to finish this project sooner rather than later...

OK, I am making a feable attempt at adding the aux port to the back of my radio.  I have the radio on the workbench but am unable to remove the top of it.  T8 screws (2) removed from the top as well as rear where the CB and GPS modules are attached.  The top wiggles but seems to be "catching" on the side where the black plastic heat radiant pices is attached.  Any help would be appreciated and thanks in advance!

[nwemerys]

With a little help I have the top off the radio, drilled the hole and ready for soldering.  The RadioShack stereo 1/8 plug I have; when unwrapped, includes 3 wires...1 red, 1 black, and 1 bare.  Any thoughts as to which is common, and which is L/R??

[kjc625]

The bare wire is common ground. It attaches to common on the board. My red wire is attached to middle that's positive / right side  and the black wire is negative / left side.

[nwemerys]

Thanks, that's they way I soldered them.  Today we'll try things out to see if it all works.  Have a great day.
