What year Harleys have throttle by wire?

Custom Dynamics® Throttle-By-Wire Handlebar Extension Wiring Kits make changing the handlebars on your 2008-2013 Harley-Davidson® Electra Glide, Ultra Classic, Ultra Limited, Road King, Street Glide, Road Glide, Road Glide Ultra and Tri-Glide models (including CVO™) with Throttle-By-Wire Extended Handlebars easy.

How does throttle by wire work on a Harley?

Throttle by wire is a simple, potentiometer style (think volume switch) design that when the throttle tube is moved, the values are calculated, and an electrical impulse is sent to the throttlebody, and a small electric motor moves the throttle plate, rather than manual linkage via cables.

What year did Harley Davidson stop using throttle cables?

In 2008 Harley-Davidson introduced a new throttle system called Electronic Throttle Control (ETC), which eliminates the throttle cables connecting the throttle and the throttle body and replaces them with an electronic connection. ETC is standard on all 2008 and 2009 touring models, including CVO touring models.

How do you reset the TPS on a Harley Davidson?

Reset the TPS. Turn ignition switch on for 10 seconds, then off for 10 seconds (Don’t start engine). Repeat a total of 4 times. DO NOT TOUCH throttle while doing it.

Is a 2008 Road King throttle by wire?

Harley-Davidson’s touring range – the Road King, Street Glide and Electra Glide models – have also been given the once-over for 2008. As well as gaining optional ABS the bikes have been give a raft of improvements including Harley’s first fly-by-wire throttle system.

What causes a Harley to go into limp mode?

Limp Mode happens when there is a correlation error between the twist grip sensor, electronic control module, and throttle control actuator. It limits the RPMS and throttle response of the bike. Basically, it lets you limp the bike home or to a shop to get it repaired.

How does throttle by wire work on a motorcycle?

With ride-by-wire technology, sensors detect the position of the accelerator and the actuators help change the position of the throttle, letting in air-fuel mixture. The movement of the throttle changes air supply to the engine.

What does throttle by wire mean on a motorcycle?

The term ride by wire is analogous to ‘drive by wire’ which is used in case of four wheelers. In simple terms, it refers to the absence of mechanical linkage between accelerator and throttle. Instead, various sensors and actuators (connected by wires) control the fuel-air supply going to the engine.

What is limp mode on a Harley Davidson?

What is the code for throttle position sensor?

Code P0122 is triggered when your vehicle’s Engine Control Module (ECM) detects that your Throttle Position Sensor (TPS) circuit A is reporting an output voltage that is below its expected voltage.
