OK Mechanics I need Help
Last week I installed my Stage 1 From Fuel Motto( which Works Awesome) but now my Cruise will stop working after the bike is warmed up.
I noticed that the vacuum hose on the Purge Solenoid was split when I was under the seat so I replaced the hose. I read my manual this morning and can't find out what the Purge Solenoid is for but that seems to be where my problem is.Is that part of the Cruise Control system, or what do you think I have disturbed under the seat to cause an intermittent problem with the cruise.
Thanks in advance for help.

Sorry about that It is a 2009 Ultraclassic stock except for the stage 1 which was the a/c powercommanderV and Jackpot dynotuned 3.5 muffs.
I do have an arnott air ride system and the compressor is right in front of the battery so I had to get pretty creative about where to put the inline connector for the ECM but I got it all in there but the purge solenoid was pretty cramped. I moved it this morning and went for a ride and the CC lasted longer but I can't imagine I did anything else under the seat that would cause this but things are pretty cramped in there. I don't understand what that Purge solenoid is.Oh Yea I forgot to mention that when the cruise quits working so does the 6th gear light.

Well since no one has popped back in, I'll throw out my .02. I'm sure the the 6th light going out and the cruise kicking off are being caused by the same electrical gremlin. Quite possible the wire carrying the signal for the 6th gear and speed signal are shorting out so you lose those two. There is a way to see what codes are being given for the cruise to quit, by pressing certain buttons in sequence to get the odometer to flash the code, you'll have to search the forum or one of the experts will throw it on here.
If you have the service manual, find out where the wire is coming out of the tranny and trace it for a lose connection or bare wire.
I lost the speedo, odo, horn, turn signals, brake light on my softtail. Found that the battery tender cord had worn and shorted on the frame. Now I have to find the short on my RG.

Download the PC-V software, connect the PC-V to the USB, open the softare, go to Power Commander Tools/Configure and uncheck the box that says "HD ECM DATA", and you will be all set
