Seems like there is an issue with the chip that allows iOS Bluetooth. That chip isn't needed for Android Bluetooth.

Please let us know if the Android paired.

 

Make sure you have turned the Bluetooth off on your Infotainment system when trying to connect to the FP3. Your phone can only be connected to one Bluetooth device at a time. Once one connects it will block any other devices from connecting. So If the Infotainment happens to connect first you wont be able to connect to the FP3. I thought I had an issue until I figured this out.

 

Thanks for posting. I tried that but it still didn't work. I'll know for sure soon. UPS will be delivering the new FP3 later today.

 

Not a problem. We will still take care of you. Although not written, we honor the warranty up to year. And to be quite honest, if you have a failure like this even after, we will still take care of you.

We have seen some interference with other bluetooth devices causing pairing issues. As Greg stated below, this is the most common cause.

Beat me to it Greg, thank you for your input.

 

That's good to hear V&H. I'll do some troubleshooting over the next few weeks to see if I can get it ironed out myself. Thanks.

 

I received my replacement FP3 today sent next day priority. Very cool of V&H. This one paired up right away to my iPhone 6. This confirms that tge Bluetooth IOS chip was defective in my first one.

I am going to be running autotune so I left the unit plugged I under the left cover.

I'll post my results.

 

Thank you both for the info. It's pretty much what I figured and my frustration was more at having to do it "the right way" rather than a criticism of the bike, the tuner, the phone, or the ipod.

Tomorrow I'll turn off that bluetooth and get in a good, long auto tuning session. I bought a handlebar mount for my phone and I'm looking forward to following the progress on the roll.

 

I had a problem connecting my fp3 to my ipad mini yesterday took about 5 tries to get it to connect, never had a problem before. Mine also said this device not supported the first time I tried to pair it. Maybe be an IOS update causing this.

 

Went for an hour long ride last night. Ran an autotune session and managed to populate 16 cells. Flashed the ECM and headed home for the hour return ride. Bike is running perfectly.

I'm very happy with the Vance & Hines Fuel Pak 3 - FP3.

 

Did a long, varied ride today using auto tune as well as running my bluetooth Sennas which also connect to my phone. Cheryl and I wanted to talk so I didn't have a way to unpair the phone and talk to her, so we gave it a try. The FP3 stayed connected and I was able to monitor the cell population while riding. I would say I had about 75% of the cells turned to green by the end of the ride. At a gas station I finalized the flash and the bike runs pretty nicely. It is hard to say how nice mainly because after flashing the learned values we were on the interstate and it was very windy, making the ride kinda suck. I may take another short jaunt tonight just to enjoy the 78 degree weather and see how the bike feels on the street.

Of note - I immensely enjoyed the ability to monitor various data from my phone while riding. Fuel mileage, HP values, etc. Very cool technology.
