well did the self Diagnostic thing on the radio and that's the code I got! what are my options? where do I start? Dealership? ughhh I expect more when I buy a Brand new bike!!

 

Without any info it's hard to advise.

Under warranty? Take it to the dealer.

Not in warranty? Call Iron Cross.

Tired of the Harmon Kardon? Get a Biketronics kit and an aftermarket head unit.

What is the radio not doing/doing. I'm not sure what that trouble code means.

 

In warranty then definately take it to the dealer. Not in warranty then skip Iron Cross and go with biketronics and an aftermarket HU with better features.

 

it means front left or right speaker open. this will happen if you have an amp installed because the radio cannot see the speaker directly but instead sees the amp and doesn't know what to do with it.

if you have an amp in the system, you'll get the B2017 code and can be ignored.

or in some odd chance, the speakers (if no amp is present) got disconnected.

 

I have no amp...one speaker stopped working then weeks later the other

 

im thinking on a 2010 my warranty is up

 

well I'd certainly take a "look-see" to make sure the speakers didn't get disconnected some how. If you find them still connected, I'd just replace the speakers. Plenty of 2 ohm 6.5" speakers out there to choose from. Just make sure you get the 6.5" adapter rings to mount them to the fairing.

Polk MM651
Infinity Kappa

to name a couple

 

Means someplace in your front speaker wiring something is not connected, could be as simple as a unpluged speaker wire.

 

open up the radio and clean up any corrosion from water on the board.
