Can somebody explain to me what I am doing wrong in enabling the EIMTS of a Limited 2015 (switching off rear cylinder during idling)
According the manual I have to:
- put the main switch on zero
- put the kill switch on 'off'
- turn the main switch to 'contact"
- switch the kill switch to 'run"
- turn the handgrip to 'throttle"
- the icon for 'Cruise Control' will flash red or green
- Red is 'disabled' and green is 'enabled'
- to change the settings, repeat the procedure above
I don't see a fu..ing 'cruise control' icon flashing at all !! The fans of the cooling system start working instead.
Even not after several tries during the last three weeks or so
All of a sudden fully unexpected the icon appeared and showed red flashing. The attempt to repeat the procedure failed completely again as usual.
What I am doing wrong??

You have it right except you have to roll the throttle OFF (away from you) and hold for a couple seconds ... then watch for the cruise icon to change color or turn your screen to read oil press/air temp and you will also see it change. Rolling the throttle ON (towards you) is what tests the fans and water pump.

Thanks, I din't know you could do it that way! ... learn something new everyday. The throttle "twisted off" routine doesn't work on mine unless the ignition is on and the engine is off so you can't do it on the fly ... even stopped in neutral running it won't work. I will try your way next time I'm out. I like mine disabled, but every time I do a flash with my fp3 it must default it back to "enabled" for some reason so I'm constantly turning it off all the time.

I did not know you could use the joy sticks through the boom radio system. I am going to try that now.
OK I tired to change it with the joy sticks and it is no go, I don't find any way to change it with the 6.5 boom system.

[QUOTE=TX Toad;14495321]I just enable/disable mine by hitting the information button and then use the joystick to select the EITMS field on the LED screen and then toggle left and right for enable or disable. Can be done on the fly while running.[/QUOTE
After 17K miles learned a new trick mine was turned off for some reason try turning it on while bike was running using throttle but no luck had to wait till stopped. I'll give it try next time Thanks.

The only thing I can do with the joy stick is exit that screen which is the command at the top right on that screen. I have 1.19.1 software version do you have a different version?
