Alarm Issues

QuestionI recently had to replace my battery in my 2002 Screaming Eagle Road King. Everything was fine after the R&R. I managed to get one ride in before having to store the bike for approximately 2 months. The siren started going off and fob will not disable it. In one instance I even disconnected the battery while the siren was going. It did not stop for about 30 seconds. I am not sure where the siren module is located to check the back up battery or if that is even the problem. I am hoping you can help.

Thank you

AnswerStart by replacing the battery in the key fob, and fully charge the m/c battery, you should be fine.

    I'm unable to turn off my alarm system on my 2018 Road Glide Ultra. It doesn't recognize my fob and won't allow me to enter the pin while the ignition switch is turned to the ignition position. For some reason, it will allow me to enter the pin when I turn the switch knob to the accessory position and when the pin is entered it shuts off the alarm. However when I then move the switch to the ignition position, the alarm reactivates and won't allow the starter to engage. I've changed the battery in the fob so I know that isn't the problem. Any suggestions would be helpful.

    ‬ I have a 2009 ultra classic, one night on the way out when I turn the bike switch to start, the red key light continues to flash, indicating that the key fob wasn’t being recognized, I turned the switch on and off a few times and the light went off and I started the bike. Later that night I started the bike to come home and I had to do the same a couple of times and again it started. I got home parked it in the garage and the bike sat for a couple weeks, I spoke to a friend and he said it may be the fob battery, I changed the fob battery and went out to start the bike and this time the red key light stayed on when I turned the switch to start and the bike will not start, I took out the battery to charge it and when I tested it, I had 13+ volts and the battery was purchased in the Spring and kept on a tender. Has anyone had this problem? And can you help?

    My 2007 ultra classic alarm keeps coming on when I turn on the ignition. I have to deactivate using pin to start the bike. I changed the fob battery and disconnected, reconnected the bike’s battery.
