Code memorized here. Also battery in saddlebag is a good idea

 

Definitely change the fob battery before going on a long trip. You don't need this problem in the middle of nowhere.

 

Haven't changed battery since I got the bike in '07 never had issue, If I get stuck I forget how to do the code thing......have to brush up on that. One of those things that if you don't do you might forget........Yeah I forgot

 

Now that's is a good idea!

Note to self: new batteries, both FOBs, birthday.

Done!

 

Lots of great ideas here - thanks! I will now keep extra batteries in the saddle bag and replace once a year. I tell you, it was not a good feeling... glad I had the manual with the disarming sequence card.... not to mention a little embarrassing - the alarm kept wailing with each failed attempt to start her up.

 

Still running the original battery in my 2006 FOB. But I always carry a backup too.

 

Same thing happened to me awhile back. I change out the batteries to my truck fob, harley fob and home smoke detectors once a year. I do it when the time changes to Daylight Savings time (which i gotta do this coming weekend) Better be safe than sorry

Mine died in front of the Tropicana in Atlantic City a few weeks ago. Luckily I'd decided to input a code right before I left.

 

This is a great reason to learn how to over ride the security system with the code. Also, put that pushbutton gas cap on in case you drop the keys along the way.

 

Any round key will open the tank.
