Pre Rushmore when you entered programming mode it showed the current code, my 13 street glide and my wife's 2009 CVO Fat Bob both did the same thing when I changed them. The Rushmore bikes do not show you the code that is currently set when you enter programming mode.

I personally am just fine that they do not have a backdoor.

I borrowed a friends 2014 CVO Road King a week ago I asked him if he knew his pin code in case I lost the fob on the road and needed to call him. He didn't, not only that I guessed it on the first try 11111, he now has a new pin code, no way I was leaving his bike at the hotel with a "default" code everyone tries first. And he can always call me if he forgets it.

 

need a working fob to get to programming mode.

 

All 07's were delivered with a code of 13131. Maybe same for 08. Give it a try. There is 2 cards in my owners manual. When I changed mine I wrote the new code on one of the cards. You can then put the card in your wallet. I didn't because if I can't remember my number it means I'm eating pablum and shouldn't be anywhere near a bike. If you have the manual check for the cards at the back. Good Luck

 

Take the fob to someone who does electronics and see if they can jury rig a repair around the piece that was broke. If the fob didn't short out when it was crunched the pin number should still be in it. All you need is that fob to work long enough to get a replacement.

 

On my 03 I didn't know the code, and they were able to re set it with the digital tech, can they not do it on Rushmore bikes?

 

HAHAHAHA Was thinking exact same thing !

 

no, they weren't. my 07 came with the last 5 of the vin. same with the wife's 07. actually, all my bike's with security have been the last 5 (5 of them)

 

From what I understand they can if you have a working fob with you.

 

First off where is the second fob . Second check your manual that is where the dealer wrote my code .Third try doing code a few times on my 13 it takes me a few tries before I get the damn thing to work. To me the whole fob and code is a real pain .I should say fob is ok unless battery in fob goes dead or you do what you did. What you did is not that un common . Like already said maybe try locksmith they do those electronic safe locks . Good luck

 

correct if you do not have a fob or the passcode they need to replace the hfsm and marry it to the ecu. then they can do fobs. prior to 07 digital tech could reset the code, this is what I was told today by a tech

on a side note I called the selling dealer back today, he gave me 5 codes that they use, I already had three of them, the first one I didn't have worked, so I have taken care of the code issue, started the bike, I will take it to the dealer next and get the new fobs linked up.

my situation happened to work out, please anyone with the passive system make sure you dot your I's and cross your T's I can move on and finish the paint and powder coat without worrying about where I stand on the starting issue
