the programming of the 2nd FOB is basically the same as the emergency manual key process when your FOB dies or you lose it.

if anything ever goes wrong, they will cover it. it went from step 5 to step 8 without showing steps 6 & 7. after the tech finally figured it out, he showed me the Yamaha online manual with the instructions, which were the same ones I used and failed. I did not watch the technician doing his thing as I had no clue there was a problem until I inquired 90 minutes later. I actually received a discount on the FOB. Here, in Canada, they throw you over the pork .ah. Did you watch the tech do it? BTW, I think that I might slip over the border and pick one up in the U.S. Perhaps one of us, or you, could do also such, for the SVTC, and make sure we all have access to that proper procedure.

There are directions in how to second pair a Proximity FOB, bike video out upon YouTube, but for the 2018 Gold Wing.

It was their omissions upon sending the manuals out to the printers. If the tech was on the phone for two hours.that would be Yamaha's prerogative to compensate them.not YOU! That sucked. They made some coin on the sale of that second FOB, off you already. What a bummer, that they even charged you for that. That's the route I'm going to take first.

Wow.that's not good.but perhaps some 'pull it out of the fire' is that you can download the manual from Yamaha's site, so I'd imagine that that would be the latest version for leave-out's and corrections. And apparently Yamaha told the technician that the manual is not correct. The bike manual appears to have a few steps missing in the print. The service technician was on the phone with Yamaha for about 2 hours until they were able to finally get the second FOB working. The dealership used the same instructions and also could not get it to work. I initially tried using the bike manual but it did not work. I paid just a tad under $160 for the FOB and $50 to have the dealership service department program it. I ordered a second key FOB nearly a month ago and just received it this past week as it was on nationwide backorder. I'll be suffering from SVTC'itis.keeps your cheeks pitched upwards, lips slightly ajar, peaked at the coners. Congrats's on your early delivery, you lucky guy!īTW, if you ever see a guy, on a red SVTC, with an enormous smile, that you'd be totally embarrassed to have upon your own face.wave at him, or them.for that's probably me/us. Keep enjoying your bike.and always ride, to ride again. Tried it.hasn't worked for over 60 years, lol. Hopefully, by the end of next week, or at the worst, one week after that.I can come back here.and give my actual ride-it-home experience, and also hopefully, not blow too many people off of the computer screen with my normal level of exuberance. You stating 'Awesome bike'.makes me smile all the more. But as you feel, most likely a failure would be temporary, and only require a battery refresh.

Oh sure, not in anyway mandatory, just that would avoid one having to go through the authentication PIN routine, every time you'd run the bike, if there was a full Proximity FOB failure. Got mine in Dec and just had first service done. I have no plans as of right now to purchase another fob, I have purchased another battery and stored on the bike. But.it will be one of the first things in the coming weeks. I'll do the due diligence after I take delivery. I wonder if you can have TWO fobs as PIN active? Hopefully not either/or.

Yep.as far as I am concerned.a required 'accessory'. Useless to anyone, so won't be lifted.but there always in the bike, for that time I might need it. I'm just going to do that.but keep in in the bike pocket within a sealed plastic baggie. Good idea about keeping the battery out of it. Nope.will drop the $160.00 as a 'convenience' cost.and be done with it. I read the manual.and too much of a hassle (for me anyways) for the tap-dance of open the right saddle bag.do this, do that.key in the PIN. Yeah.I think I will drop the $$ for another. The service manual does give the procedure for adding/removing fobs to/from a bike. Looking online, it appears it is anywhere from $160 to $195 for a replacement fob if I am looking at it right. I never had a need for it but it was nice to have it just in case. I kept the battery out of the spare and gave it to a friend that was along on the trip. I don't know what a second one costs as I post this.but seriously am thinking of carrying a second one, as simply, back up and convenience.Īnybody else considering this? Just curious. What a PITA, if your battery, OR, simply the electronic internal circuit board fails.and you are now having to go through the whole ringamarole of using the manual key and messing around with your included start-up security code. Has anybody thought of purchasing another key FOB, for tour redundancy? I've been thinking of that over the last few days.
