Like a lot of others my owners manual for the FLHTKSE is missing and still waiting for it.  I would like to get some instructions on how to change the security pin.  Just slightly uncomfortable having the basic 1111 factory setting.

Newer owners manuals are available online - Harley-Davidson Owners Manual. If you don't already have an account you can create one and view the manual (that is if it has been uploaded to the MoCo site).

the online owner's manuals haven't been updated yet.

if the procedure has not changed with the new 'infotainment' system, then what you'll need to do:

with a fob present, turn the ignition- on, off, then back on
press left turn signal 3 times
press right turn signal once

current pin should display

cycle through the digits with the left turn signal button (zero is not available)
enter your choice with the right turn signal button

once all digits entered, just turn ignition off

  well I appreciate the help so far but .............  like you say the new manuals are not loaded yet.  Also next thing is I don't have a normal ignition switch like on the old models.  The on off is the switch on the handle bar and I did try that but didn't have any luck.  Have you done this on a '14?  I may still be doing it wrong but I was unable to see the PIN let alone change it, even though I did cycle the handle bar switch on / off / on then hit left turn 3 and right turn 1 ... the display never changed.  HELP Still!!

The 2014 Touring models have the HDLAN (CAN bus) electrical system similar to the recent Softails.  If no one has the info for a 2014 Touring model, perhaps the procedure for a HDLAN equipped Softail would do the trick.  Or you could of course call your dealer and see if they have a clue.

Funny Story on the ask dealer....I went in asked them how to set PIN, service advisor says " being a 14 you should refer to your manual"  I said I don't have a manual yet!  I think he thought I was pulling his leg.  But anyways he tried setting it but didn't get it.  I should have prolly just demanded a Mechanic instead of the advisor.  But anyways, I really think this is going to be basic when I get this figured out.  Worse case manual comes in by end of next week. I was just hoping, someone has actually done this procedure already.  Thanks for the help..I will look into the Softtail.

DONE - Thank YOU!!!  One thing that was slightly different is I actually turned ignition on when I had FOB present.  Then took the FOB out of range, with ignition still on.  Then I cycled the ignition Off / on / off / on and hit the blinkers as you said and bingo I was in.  I now have a unique code!  Thanks all for the help!!  Whew who.....We win this round with HD....

I want you to know how much you helped me. I was setting up my 2014 FLHTK security pin and could not get the thing to work. I read your post and realized my problem was the darn FOB. I even had the manual; it does not tell you that your FOB must be out of range, your post set me straight. Thank you

Your very welcome Scott!!  It was a pain and I was just nervous having new bike no mileage and anyone at a dealer knows how to work the pin.  I'm glad to help!!  I stumbled on it after the other posts... Ride safe my friend ...

i really would like to see the manual and what it says the procedure is on this.  it doesn't make any sense to do it with the fob out of range.  if so, what would stop me from coming up to your bike, without a fob, change the pin, and then use the manual override to ride off with it?

I copied the instructions in the manual and the instructions on the wallet card included in the manual towards the back. The funny thing to me is they say something different? am I missing something?

Attachment 1 is the wallet card, I will make two more post to show what is in the heart of the manual

Here is the first of two pages in the manual going over the PIN change

This is the second page from the manual:
RE: Pin Security change

[skratch]

scottt,

your post showing the wallet card is the procedure for entering the pin to override the security, not to change it.

your scan showing the procedure to change the pin, clearly states 'with assigned fob present', so if you are able to change the pin without the fob present, then there is definitely something wrong.  if so, then like i mentioned earlier, i could easily steal your bike simply by changing the code.

i notice that to change, you don't need to press the left turn  signal 3 times, only 2 now.

Hi All:

Thanks to everyone in this thread.  I too didn't get a manual.  I thought the dealer was giving me a line about it not shipping w/ the bike.  I figured someone at the dealership scarfed it up to do some at home study 

Anyway, I can't wait to get home and try this out.  I don't think either of by remotes are paired and that may be a whole different problem.

The lock / unlock doesn't work.  I have to use the console to lock the forks / bags / tp.  Any advice / comments there  are most welcome!

Another thing.  Can you kill the engine without turning everything off?  I would like to stop bike, kill engine, lock.  As it is, to kill the engine I have to turn off the HB switch and then turn it back on to use the lock switch on the console (fob doesn't work).

Again help appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Kind Regards,

Mark
