Harley Radio

Question The Harley radio on my 09 ultra classic keeps going off and on. the code tells me its the left speaker. What should I do/ I heard about this happening to a few HD’s in the past… HELP!!!

Answer Hi Angel,

Thank you for the email. Did you remove the left speaker and check for issues with it?

Feedback: Got it. It was the speakers. Changed them over to new ones and everything is working fine. I’m glad I didn’t go for the $1,000 HD radio. A

Related Question:
I replaced the battery on my wife’s 2010 Street Glide. Now the radio won’t come on. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

A: If you have no power to your radio, check for a blown fuse 1st.

    have a 2017 Road Glide Special and my radio/bluetooth keep cutting on and off. When it does go off, there is a symbol that appears on the bottom right of my screen next to the bars for strength level. I am not sure what this means and have not found anywhere in my manual what it means? I can't see it being a loose speaker wire since it effects both speakers. It happens in a turn or when just riding a straight road. Looking for help before I go out and spend money on a new radio and speakers,

    2017 Road Glide Special. The Media symbol is grey, not yellow. It will not link up to my phone's bluetooth ( I phone ). The radio and navigation and most everything else works. I hooked up usb cable, the media button turn yellow and says no payable music found. Still no bluetooth to stream music. Now the screen went dark and the radio comes on and off. It has done this before and comes out of it. It tried to come back on and the screen looked like it was a broke screen ?

    I realize I am a little late to the conversation, so I am sorry if this has been addressed in the past. I purchased a used 09' Ultra this year and for a while, there were no problems at all. Near the end of summer I was out for a ride and after fueling up and starting the bike the radio would not turn on. While parked with the bike off and the ignition switch set to Acc, I have full function of the radio. It is just not working while the bike is running. Please help! :D
