Key Components of the Harley-Davidson Factory Security System
The system includes the Smart Security System (H-DSSS), key fobs, sirens, and the Turn Signal Security Module (TSSM), ensuring comprehensive protection for your motorcycle.
Smart Security System (H-DSSS) Features
The Harley-Davidson Smart Security System (H-DSSS) offers advanced protection with automatic arming and disarming, key fob recognition, and immobilization technology. It includes a high-decibel siren, motion sensing, and tamper detection. The system arms itself within seconds after turning off the ignition and disarms when the key fob is detected. Riders can also disarm the system using a personal PIN. The H-DSSS integrates seamlessly with the Turn Signal Security Module (TSSM), providing real-time feedback through a flashing status indicator. This system ensures robust security while maintaining ease of use for Harley-Davidson owners.
Key Fob and Siren Components
The Harley-Davidson Factory Security System includes a compact key fob that enables seamless arming and disarming of the system. The key fob features a panic button for emergency situations and a range of up to 300 feet. The siren component is designed to be weather-resistant and produces a high-decibel alarm to deter potential threats. The siren is typically located near the battery for easy installation and is connected to the main harness. Together, these components provide a reliable and user-friendly security solution for Harley-Davidson motorcycles.
Turn Signal Security Module (TSSM) Functions
The Turn Signal Security Module (TSSM) is a central component of the Harley-Davidson Factory Security System. It integrates with the turn signal switches and ignition system to manage security features. The TSSM processes inputs from the key fob and turn signals to arm and disarm the system. It also handles the Personal Identification Number (PIN) setup, allowing manual disarming if the key fob is lost or damaged. Additionally, the TSSM monitors the motorcycle’s status when armed, ensuring that any unauthorized movements trigger the alarm. This module enhances the overall security system by providing multiple layers of protection, ensuring the motorcycle is secure and easily recoverable in case of theft.
Installation and Setup Guidelines
Install the siren near the battery, connect the harness, and ensure all components are securely fastened. Use the correct siren connector for your model year and follow the manual’s step-by-step instructions for proper setup and pairing.
Hardware Installation Steps
Begin by locating the siren connector behind the harness shield near the battery. Remove the dust cap and feed the connector downward. Select the correct siren harness for your model year from the kit. Connect the siren and ensure it is securely fastened. Next, access the Turn Signal Security Module (TSSM) and connect the appropriate wires. Ensure all connections are tight to avoid malfunctions. Finally, reassemble any removed components, such as the seat, and test the system to confirm proper functionality. Always follow the manual for model-specific instructions.
Software Configuration and Pairing
Pair your key fob by entering the default PIN (typically 11111) and follow on-screen prompts. Ensure the system recognizes the fob by testing arming/disarming. For VIN-specific codes, contact a Harley-Davidson dealer to program the fob’s serial number into the bike’s computer. After pairing, the system automatically arms when the ignition is off. If issues arise, reset the system or consult the manual for troubleshooting steps. Proper software configuration ensures seamless security functionality, protecting your motorcycle with advanced features.
Using the Factory Security System
Arm the system by turning off the ignition and walking away with the key fob. The system automatically activates, ensuring your motorcycle is secure.
Disarm by approaching with the key fob or entering your PIN. The system provides visual and audible feedback, ensuring easy operation and reliable protection.
Arming and Disarming Procedures
The Harley-Davidson Factory Security System arms automatically after turning off the ignition and walking away with the key fob. The system activates within 5 seconds, providing a secure lockdown.
Disarm the system by approaching the motorcycle with the key fob or entering your personal PIN. Turn the ignition switch to “ON” and press the left turn signal switch to deactivate the alarm. The system provides audible and visual feedback, such as a siren chirp and indicator light, confirming the status. For added convenience, the system can be programmed to automatically rearm if the ignition remains off for an extended period.
Personal Identification Number (PIN) Setup
The Harley-Davidson Factory Security System allows you to set a Personal Identification Number (PIN) for added security. The default PIN is 11111, but you can change it to a custom code. To set up or change your PIN, turn the ignition switch to the “ON” position and press the left turn signal switch three times, followed by the right turn signal switch once. Enter your desired PIN using the turn signal switches, and confirm the change. This feature ensures an extra layer of protection for your motorcycle.
Troubleshooting Common Issues
Address common issues like lost key fobs or system malfunctions by consulting the manual or contacting a Harley-Davidson dealership for expert assistance and genuine solutions.
Lost or Damaged Key Fob Solutions
If your key fob is lost or damaged, use your Personal Identification Number (PIN) to disarm the system temporarily. Enter the ignition on-off sequence, then input your 5-digit PIN using the turn signal switches. For a permanent solution, contact a Harley-Davidson dealership to obtain a replacement fob. Ensure your VIN is ready for verification. The dealership will program the new fob to your motorcycle’s security system, restoring full functionality and security to your bike. Always keep your PIN secure to avoid unauthorized access.
System Malfunction and Error Codes
If your Harley-Davidson security system malfunctions, refer to the error codes displayed on the dashboard or security module. Common codes like “13” indicate key fob communication issues, while “14” may signal a siren malfunction. To identify the issue, turn the ignition on and observe the flashing security light sequence. Consult your manual or a dealership for precise code meanings. Resetting the system may resolve minor glitches, but persistent errors require professional diagnosis. Regular system checks and updates can prevent malfunctions and ensure optimal security performance. Always address errors promptly to maintain your bike’s protection.
