Tech Tip - Stereo Updates

Harman Kardon radios (the units that come stock with select Harley-Davidson Touring models) have the capability to be updated which can cure minor problems like skipping, display issues, etc.


Installing these updates is quick and easy; Simply visit Harley-Davidson.com
1, Go to the Parts section of the website
2, run a search for “Advanced Audio AM/FM/CD Radio Kit by Harman/Kardon®
Click on the link to download updates. Once you download and burn the update to a disk you can download it to the radio.


To install the update on motorcycle:
1, Make sure there is no CD in player.
2, Make sure run/stop button is in run position.
3, Hold any 2 soft keys on the stereo at the same time while turning on the ignition making sure not to release the soft keys until you see a diagnostic screen appear. You will see 1 of the options will say update. Push that button and it will prompt you to install the disk.
4, Once you install the disk it will take over and run through the process on its own.  Once the process is complete it will return to a regular display and you are all done.
5, Just eject disk and shut off ignition. This works on all Harman Kardon stereos from 2006 to present.

Of course, you can always stop in and we will gladly install the update for you.

Enjoy the tunes and love the ride…
