Top 20 2000 Harley Davidson FLHR-FLHRI Road king Questions & Answers

Was there paint inside tank where cap is to clog fuel line?

Sounds like there is a bad or loose connection. Lots of things to consider like exposure to weather, moisture. I would start with the battery, check the condition and charge level, check connections, follow wires looking for damage, breaks. Check ignition switch connection, check handlebar switches and connections for corrosion, clean and lubricate Finally, it could be the starter, that can be pretty pricey so you may want to have the bike professionally diagnosed if you are still having problems, good luck

Many possible causes THEORY OF OPERATION The 2001 electronic speedometer consists of a speed sensor, an odometer reset switch and the speedometer itself. The speed sensor is located on the right side of transmission case below the starter. It is a Hall Effect sensor that is triggered by the gear teeth of 4th gear on the transmission mainshaft. The output from the sensor is a series of pulses that are interpreted by speedometer circuitry to control the position of the speedometer needle and the liquid crystal (LCD) odometer display. The odometer mileage is permanently stored and will not be lost when electrical power is turned off or disconnected. The odometer reset switch allows switching between the odometer and the trip odometer displays. To zero the trip odometer, while having the odometer display visible, press and keep the function switch depressed. The trip odometer mileage will be displayed for 2-3 seconds and then the trip mileage will return to zero miles. The odometer can display six numbers to indicate a maximum of 999999 miles. The trip odometer can display six numbers with a tenth of a mile accuracy for a maximum of 99999.9 miles. Circuitry in the speedometer also uses the sensor input to provide an input to the turn signal canceller. This turn signal canceller input was previously supplied by the reed switch in mechanical speedometers. DIAGNOSTICS To enable diagnostic mode depress the odometer reset switch and turn ignition/key switch to ON, to clear codes turn the ignition switch from OFF to ON while holding the reset switch in. Press and release the reset switch to cycle through the codes. Set codes will display as Code d0xSet. Holding the reset switch in will result in Code d0xClr being displayed indicating that the code has been cleared. To return the speedometer to the normal operating state cycle the ignition/key switch. Remove the seat for testing. Remove the speed sensor and check for accumulation of debris on it and if there is any debris present, clean it away and if there is not debris replace the sensor. Disconnecting the speed sensor will cause code d02 to set. ODOMETER, TRIP ODOMETER AND RESET SWITCH TESTING Turn the ignition ON. Does odometer display consist of the correct numbers? If YES Press trip reset switch. Does the LCD display toggle between trip and odometer modes? BUT if the odometer display does not consist of the correct numbers replace the speedometer. If the speedometer does display the correct numbers press the trip reset switch. Does the LCD display toggle between the trip and odometer modes? If No Loosen the trip reset switch boot and then tighten it again until it is snug and toggle the switch again and verify if it toggles between trip and odometer modes? If YES does the trip display consist of correct numbers? If it does STOP here and go to test 2A If No replace the speedometer. If loosening and retightening the reset switch boot results in okay toggling between the trip and odometer modes the Speedometer is OKAY. If it does not, then remove the rubber boot from the reset switch and toggle it without the rubber cover and if it now toggles between the trip and the odometer modes replace the reset switch boot/cover. If it does not now toggle between the trip and odometer modes place a jumper wire across the leads to the reset switch on speedometer connector. Does the LCD display now toggle between the trip and the odometer modes? If yes replace the reset switch and if No replace the speedometer. Speedometer Test 2A SPEEDOMETER INOPERATIVE, READS HIGH/LOW, NEEDLE STICKS, INTERMITTENT/ERRATIC, OUTPUT SPEED SIGNAL INOPERATIVE Turn ignition ON. Is speedometer backlighting on? If NO then If speedometer backlighting is not on, check for 9-12 VDC on the O/W wire at connector [39B]. If the proper voltage is present check for continuity to ground on the BK wire at connector [39B]. If there was not appropriate voltage on the )/W wire at connector [39B] locate and repair an open in the O/W wire. If there is continuity at the BK wire at connector [39B] replace the speedometer. If there is not locate and repair an open in the BK wire. If there is backlighting enable diagnostic mode and clear codes. Then recheck for codes. If there are any codes present go to the applicable code in Speedometer Test 2B (d0x). If there are no codes set return the speedometer to its normal state, raise the rear wheel from the ground, put the transmission in 5th gear, turn the ignition ON, spin the back tire, enable diagnostic mode and check for codes and if there are any codes set now make repairs to the harness/connections.

Clutch discs worn out, pressure plate burned/worn out, diaphragm spring damaged or retaining screws loose or clutch adjustment or cable adjustment way out or basket/hub wear or release mechanism defective, bound up.

Well you have it posted under FLHR and you say it is a fatboy. Which is it. The touring fuses are under the left side cover and the Softail fuses are under the seat.

raise wheel of the ground. remove and support brake calipers, loosen axle cap nuts, remove axle nut, remove axle keeping note of where spacers come from etc. so you will not have them mixed up on installation. Also be sure you know how to porperly reinstall axle etc.

WHAT DTCs are set??

This isn't much to go on. Does it turn over? Is the key in the on position? Do you have gas? Did it start yesterday? Have you ever started it before?

Yes, if the do you need to replace them.

You really need to give more specifics. What codes are set??

I believe it is like 11 ounces

It's your low idle speed idle control valve

(1) harley vibrates make sure kickstand stays up. (2) you have to find it. there is a tilt switch on bike. if it lean over to far it will kill the bike. check to see if its ok.

Just twist the throttle (LOL)! Assuming you have EFI and you are talking about changing the rev limit you will need a laptop, screaming eagle race tuner software and the connector block unique for your bike. These can be bought online or at your local H-D dealer. You can then change many parameters, including air/fuel ratio at particular rpm's as well as the rev limiter setting. There are other ways to do this, but this it what the manufacturer recommends. If you need further help, reach me via phone at https://www.6ya.com/expert/david_1f7d1c330c9dd97d

make sure you have a good ground

How do you know it is overheating??? What is the temperture???? Take some measurements with a ditital infra red thermometer gun and post some more info etc.

The ABS light should stay on until you reach a speed of about 3 MPH or higher. Did you check for error codes? 1- Turn Ignition switch to OFF & Run/Stop switch is to Run. 2- Push odometer reset button in & hold. 3- Turn ignition switch to Ignition and release odometer reset button. Background lighting should illuminate, speedometer needle should sweep its full range and indicator lamps (battery, security, low fuel, check engine and cruise) should illuminate. The word "diag" should then appear. 4 - Push the odometer reset button once and you will see the selection menu "PSSPt" with the first P flashing. 5 - Each letter represents an area of the diagnostics module. The module that is flashing is the one you are going to check. To move from one letter (module) to the next, you push the odometer reset button one time. (from P to S to SP to t and back to P, etc.) P = ECM/ICM (Electronic Control Module [EFI] / Ignition Control Module [Carbureted) S = TSM/TSSM (Turn Signal/ Turn Signal Security Module) SP = speedometer T = tachometer 6 - To get the DTC within an area of diagnostics, push and hold the odometer reset button in for 5 seconds and release. If there are any DTC's the code will be displayed or the word "none" will appear if there are no DTC's. Push the odometer reset button again to view additional codes if they exist. 7 - Record the codes. 8 - If DTC's are not to be cleared, Press and release the odometer reset button. Part number of module will be displayed. NOTE: To determine if a code is current or historic, clear the displayed code by pushing in and holding the odometer reset button ( longer than 5 seconds) until 'clear' comes up. Release the odometer reset button. Turn OFF the ignition switch. Run your bike and shut it down then recheck the DTC's again by repeating steps 1 to 9. If the code is current it will reappear. 9 - Press and release the odometer reset button to continue to the next module. 10 - Turn Ignition switch to OFF. On models not equipped with a tachometer "No Rsp" will appear when the tachometer identifier is selected. "No Rsp" will also appear if the run/off switch is in the off position when doing this procedure. Also if the code set is a historic code (not a constant light) after 50 start and run cycles of at least 30 seconds each in duration, the light will extinguish itself as long as the error hasn't occurred again. If it were a current code, the light would remain lit while running. If you clear the error code (step #8), the light SHOULD reset.

How much, when and where etc. Check your motor mounts for tightness.

lighting fuse

You need to provide further information. Check for intake leaks.
