My Buttons stuck!

[Guest msegelle]

My buttons on my raido seem to get stuck now and then more and more often is there anything I can do short of getting a new radio?

I can't change raido stations 90% of the time when I want too.

 

Thanks in advance for any advise or help!

I'd start with contact cleaner.

 

Good Luck,

Warranty! Everything is covered in the warranty for 5 whole years! Get them to replace it.

Are the buttons actually sticking in, or is it that you push a button and the radio just doesn't respond. Quite a few of us have found that the connector for the Radio Control Head needs to be pulled apart and some Di-electric grease put in it. This usually solves the problem. Its under the fairing and if I remember right its the connector with the blue band on it

Buddy Rich the buttons get pushed and nothing changes so I am guessing that it's a contact type problem.

Is there a tread on this issue that your aware of?

I buought the bike in january and will legally license it in my name this month.

 

Thanks for everyones suggestions ..............

Brad did a good write up on installing a splitter. It shows how to get to the area you need to get to.

Cougar did a nother write up and in his first pic you can see the bundle you need to get to.

Which is on the left side as you face the bike.
