Keep in mind the new ones, without the button, will die faster, especially if you mess around with the bike a lot in a way that causes the bike to look for the key fob. Mine died on a recent trip. One gas stop was fine and the next it would not disarm. After trying twice, I got the buttons right to disarm using the turn signals. I moved the bike out of the gas stations way and replaced the fob battery (I carry extras). Once again it worked fine. Mine was just over 18 months old but I do ride a lot (40k on the bike). Carry a spare friends! 

cd, do you have the P/N on that battery? I better order a few! Thanks

ADDED: Nevermind! It's in the owner's manual, Panasonic 2032 or equiv. Replace every year according to the book.

Hoist!

Spyder,
I do have the directions and code to disarm it manually with me when I ride.

I do the same.  The battery # for the 04- 05's is 2032.  Probably fits other years and I think I got it at Lowe's or any store that has a large selection of batteries.

Something else that eats batteries is the Harley-Davidson® Security System Pager Receiver II

  The owners manual tells you to replace the fob battery every year.  It takes (1) CR-2032 watch battery.  I have never changed mine.  I bought it new in January of 2005.  I think it's time for me to change the batteries in all my fobs.  Better to be safe than sorry with a dead fob battery !!  Cuz you know when it does die you will probably have your bike armed and you will have to disarm the bike the manual way.

I had mine quit working one morning in reno nv. I thought the battery was dead but i had the spare too and it didnt work either. Of course i never programmed my security code to disarm it manualy. Come to find out that the fob can get out of sync and wont work period!  The remedy is to hold your fob button down for 15 seconds and it will re sync itself. This little knowledge may save you some grief. Page 109  2005 seeg manual
page 107 for the battery replacement

Hey, I resemble that remark!

Since those batteries have a long shelve life, you can get them really cheap by buying bulk at www.digikey.com

I'm sure there are other places as well as long as they move their merchandise. I keep spares on the bike for both the key fob and the alarm pager.

Hey Coyotedata, which battery do they take?  spyder

thanks.....probably would be a good idea to have a couple of spares on board.  Now, how do I remember where I put them?  har!  spyder

Don't forget to wrap them in cellophane or something to keep them from shorting out and going bad. I use my heat sealer and package each one in it's own plastic bag. More than once I've helped out another rider when theirs dies on the road.
