Whiskey Tuning Question PCV/TS

[cajunglide]

So If  use  a TwinScan III, to check my Powercommander V w/autotune, I simply disable the autotune function on the PCV, and unplug the PCV from the dataplug, remove the PCV WBO2 sensors and replace them with the TS WBO2's and plug the TS into the data plug?

The PCV should continue to function normally without it plugged into the dataport?

Yes that will work

[BVHOG]

It should work just fine but from what I have seen of the pc auto tune you will likely have little to gain, the pc system works very well, and very quickly I might add. Would be interesting to see what you find.

BVHOG, the problem I'm having is on my 2010 glide is the cruise and 6th gear will become inoperative when the ECM data is being used. The fix I was told was to disable the ECM data, which does correct the lose of cruise and 6th gear, however my autotune wont show corrections , I've been told that will happen when the PCV has the data disabled.

This sound correct???

I am gonna bump this because I have no idea what your talking about
and Bob hasent answered yet.
I have used the pc 5 autotune software and twin scan to tune pc5 .
never had a problem.
you might be correct because on the dyno I dont use cruise ,but I do look at that silly 6 th gear light. so I know the light works but the cruise
I dont leave autotune enabled after a tune so I dont know for  sure about the cruise

Stroker, yes the cruise and 6th gear light will drop out after a few miles when the PCV 5 has the Harley ECM data enabled. Jamie at FM helped me on this one, he said some but not all late model touring bikes do it, he felt there was some sort of data issue that caused it.

With the ECM data disabled, its hurting my tuning ability. I like my cruise and and 6th gear light functioning!

Thanks

Maybe Jamie can comment if he see's this !

How important is it to keep the Autotune function turned on? I would think that after a while it would have pretty much accounted for 99% of the variable conditions for your style of riding and would have made the appropriate adjustments. If you change something, like different pipes or air cleaner, then you'd want to run the autotune again for a while to have it makd the changes...then shut it off again.

Am I looking at this wrong?

[cajunglide]

You're correct! Once the map is correct, I plan on removing the o2's as soon as I can.

Stroker, still no comment to the 6th Gear light and loss of cruise control!!!

Maybe Jamie can elaborate!!!

I am with big bluff. tune it and disable auto tune, when done.
do you really need cruise and the light to tune it?
I wish Jamie would hang out more here myself. I understand why he doesn't though
