How do I get the radio to play on both the speakers and the headsets on my 2012 Limited at the same time? My wife wears a 3/4 helmet with the HD headset and choose to not wear a helmet. I can use the speaker switch to have it work with the headset or speakers but not both at the same time. Is there a wiring fix for this?

 

There is a center position have you tried that?

 

If your Limited doesn;t offer an optional switch position;

I wire an earphone jack into my speakers...plug in my earbuds and both play.

a radio shack type inline volume control is required for the earbuds to keep them from blowing the head off.

cost about $10

I use earbuds when touring to keep the music in and the wind noise out. I really only use the speaker for hops around town

If you've got the electrical manual it should be a simple matter of jumpering a wire.

 

On a 12 ultra classic and limited there is a speaker switch with three positions, headset only, speaker only and speaker and head set on.

If in the forward position, that is headset only, and each individual can control the volume for their headset

If in the center position, it's speakers only

In the rear position it's speakers and headset, and the rear passenger can once again control their own volume.

You may have to turn on and set up the intercom portion of the unit, and you'll need to make sure her volume is turned up.

All of the instructions you need are in the owners manual. DO NOT start jumping wires and doing stupid crap. The light on the switch is ONLY on in the rearmost setting where the headset and speakers are active

 

I have learned something new today.

 

On the '09 Ultra position 1 put the radio & CB thru the speakers, position 2 put the radio thru the speakers & the CB thru the headset, and position 3 put the radio & CB thru the headset. I don't think that you can play the radio thru the speakers & the headset at the same time.

 

Exactly. No way to get music thru the speakers and the headset at the same time. The center switch position gives music thru the speakers, and communication thru the headset.

Funny, I went out and did it before I wrote what I did.

 

Fairing 3 way switch will not solve your issue you have to jump wires on the speaker switch, the stock switch only works all sounds and thru speakers in one position or all sounds and communication (when turned on) thru headset only and the other position is for music thru speakers and communication thru head set. Some one mention here otherwise could be malfunctioned fairing cap switch which is very possible have had few of these gone bad in our group.
