How do I turn off Eitms?
EITMS can be enabled or disabled by performing the following procedure.
- Turn ignition switch ON.
- Push the throttle to roll-off position and hold.
- See Controls and Indicators → Instruments → Instruments.
- Repeat the procedure to enable or disable EITMS.
What does Eitms mean on a Harley?
Engine Idle Temperature Management System
For those riders who frequently find themselves in riding conditions where the vehicle is subjected to prolonged idle conditions or traffic congestion, the motorcycle is equipped with an Engine Idle Temperature Management System (EITMS) to provide limited cooling of the rear cylinder.
What does rolling the throttle forward on a Harley do?
heydennd- Your are right about the forward roll on the throttle, once the motor is HOT, when you come to a stoplight, roll it forward and it will shut off fuel to the rear cylinder and just have a air flow through it to help cool the motor down. Roll it back down and the rear cylinder comes alive again.
What temp should my Harley run at?
about 160-220 degrees
Extremely hot! Motorcycle engine temperature can vary, but in normal circumstances, a Harley’s temperature should average about 160-220 degrees. If you are moving at high speeds or frequently idling, chances are good the engine is running on the hotter end of the spectrum.
What year did Harley go to throttle by wire?
2008
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.
Do Harley Pistons fire at the same time?
The pins are 180 degrees apart from one another. A Harley engine has two pistons. The difference in the Harley engine is that the crankshaft has only one pin, and both pistons connect to it. This design, combined with the V arrangement of the cylinders, means that the pistons cannot fire at even intervals.
What is parade mode on a Harley?
My harley (2012 Ultra Classic) is currently in what they have nicknamed “parade mode”. this is the mode where when the rear cylinder reaches I believe 286 degrees, the bike shuts it off and turns it into an air pump to aid in cooling the rear cylinder. You you all keep your bike in this mode or do you turn it off.
Do I have throttle by wire?
If there are two cables running down the handlebars it is cabled. If it doesn’t have any cables on the right side, it’s throttle by wire.
How do you replace a throttle wire?
- Step 1: Locate the throttle cable.
- Step 1: Disconnect the throttle cable at the throttle body.
- Step 2: Disconnect the throttle cable from the retaining bracket.
- Step 3: Pull the throttle cable through the firewall.
- Step 4: Disconnecting the throttle cable from the accelerator pedal.
How does the eitms work on a Harley Davidson?
This is a system where once the engine reaches a pre-determined temp the EITMS will turn off the rear jug fuel injector so the engine will act as an air pump and there by cool down. So having said all that my question is this.
When to use the eitms system on mastertune?
The latest MasterTune calibrations have significantly improved heat management capability over the earlier and stock calibrations. It is recommended to use these cals wherever possible, and enable the EITMS system if heat buildup during idle is a problem. The EITMS system is an option on most calibrations.
What causes a system to make an error?
If a user is improperly trained then the likelihood of them making major errors is increased due to their lack of knowledge of the system. Failures by reason of lack of training should not be regarded as an error due to the individual operator as is likely with a poorly designed user interface, but as a mistake by the management.
What happens if an information system goes wrong?
Information system projects are capital and labour intensive usually requiring a huge sum of money to implement. Its failure can cause a huge financial loss to an organization and therefore there is need for adequate planning before its implementation to ensure that desired expectations are met.
How does idle temperature management system ( eitms ) work?
When engine temperature reaches a predetermined point at idle, the EITMS will turn off the rear cylinder fuel injector. Idle speed will be maintained, however the rear cylinder will become an “air pump” which will work to cool the engine.
When does the eitms engine cooling feature activate?
These are both considered to be normal conditions. Enabled: The EITMS engine cooling feature will automatically activate whenever the vehicle comes to a complete stop and is idling during elevated temperature conditions. When the feature is enabled, it may not activate under cool riding conditions.
