I lost a fob this weekend while riding. If I buy a new one from the dealer or a new/used from EBAY can I mate/marry the FOB to the bike myself? I have one working FOB and wonder if I can program a second FOB myself. Bike is a 2008 SERK (FLHRSE4)
Nope. While you could do this with the old push button security fobs, you cannot with the proximity type fobs introduced in 2007. Those require having the dealer use the Digital Technician to assign the unique serial number of each fob to the Hands Free Security Module. This is detailed in the owners manuals btw.
----------------------------------------------------------------
Fob AssignmentSee Fob: Smart Security System. Key fobs are electronically assigned to the Harley-Davidson Smart Security System by a Harley-Davidson dealer so that the motorcycle can recognize a fob's unique signal. Only two fobs can be assigned at any one time.
Replacement fobs can be purchased from a dealership but
can only be assigned to the motorcycle by a trained Harley-Davidson technician.NOTES:
•The reusable label found on the fob packaging lists the serial number of the fob. For reference, affix the label to a blank "NOTES" page in this Owner's Manual.
•The serial number of the fob is also found on the inside of the fob. See Fob Battery.
•The module will arm only if the fob has been assigned by a Harley-Davidson dealer and a Personal Identification Number (PIN) has been entered in the system. The PIN should be recorded on the Personal Information page in the front of this Owner's Manual and on the removable wallet card.
•Should the rider misplace the fob or if the fob fails, the rider can refer to the wallet card and use the PIN to manually disarm the system. Refer to Arming and Disarming and Troubleshooting.
•The PIN can easily be changed by the rider at any time. Refer to Personal Identification Number (PIN).
