Anyone else getting the error codes P110000C, P179200C, and C110000C? I know what they are and the P179 clears every time after the bike is running for a few miles and the 1100 codes reset every time you restart the engine but not while you are riding. I have taken it back to the dealership and ran the latest updates. The codes cleared for a couple of days but are back in again. The P179 locks the VVT so it acts like it is in rain mode. The dealership is more than willing to take the bike back in and do more diagnostics on the bike but I am really enjoying riding it. Just wanted to share to see if anyone else had this problem and how it was resolved.

Hi Tim, having the same faults . everything ok during brake in then these.
P110000 572 ABS/EHCU indicates torque control fault Serial Data → NO VEHICLE POWER OR LOST COMMUNICATION DTCS

Notified dealer & before 1k service, new update applied & all faults removed. Bike taken on test ride by tech only 200ft before all the same codes came back, now waiting on Harley to reply to techs email.
Has yours been resolved yet?

Nope, they ran all the latest updates on it and like your they all came back in before I left the dealership. I rode it all day in the rain yesterday and that seem to make it worse. The P179700 847 would usually come in and then reset and stay reset. But in the rain I never could get it reset. I have another appointment on Tuesday to get it checked again. The tech said he was going to call HD once my bike was back in. Will let you know if they find anything.

It is at the dealership now. They have been in contact with HD tech support. The suspect a faulty VVT feedback signal but are still investigating. Will keep everyone updated when done.

I have the same 3 codes, after 3 weeks in the shop and a new wiring harness a 25 mile ride it went into limp mode. I guess it is back to the shop. Before there was about 9 codes so I guess we are getting somewhere.
I hope to ride soon owned it about 6 weeks been in the shop 3 of them weeks, I know it will be fixed just missed riding Tellico Plains because of being in the shop. I live here so I can ride more when it is fixed.
Need to go to Florida but not in limp mode.

Mike,
The HD tech recommended the same fix for my bike. So, they are sending a wiring harness to the dealership to change it out. I mentioned your situation and they said that they have had several situations with the harness and that is the first step to correcting the problems. I am thinking they are parts changing until it doesn't happen anymore. Will update you when it is corrected.

All,
Have finally got resolution to the error codes. It was one of the wires going to the VVT. It was on the front cylinder where it had rubbed the insulation off the wire. Once the tech pulled the small harness out you could see the bare wire. It was touching on the head and giving the error code. The harness has been replaced and after several hundred miles all is good. Hope this helps.

Got my bike back after the 2nd wiring harness, so far so good. Longer trip when we get a few warm days.

Mike, I have not had any codes come back in since the repair. I have ridden about 1100 miles and some of that was in pouring rain for about 2 hours. So, hopefully they can get yours corrected.

 

[Tim]

Since they changed the wiring harness on the front VVT all the fault have disappeared. You can reset the faults yourself. The dealership can still see the history when they connect your bike. I have over 1000 miles since they replaced the harness and have not had any fault codes.

 

[Tim]

Are they the same codes? , Mine started after 500 miles & would go into limp mode every 40-50 miles . Would clear then return just as you was overtaking, got to the point that it now dose it before I get to the main road & is unrideable. Now been at deal waiting on new harness for over month, hopefully now the holidays are over it will be sorted.

Wow, a month!!!! Make sure your service writer is marking it unable to ride and going to through HD tech support. If they go through HD tech support and deam it unable to ride they will over night the harness to the dealership. If they just ordered it as a replacement part you are at the mercy of the normal parts shipping and handling. We all know how that has gone with the Pan AM. So far, with about 2000 miles since the change out I have not had any fault codes come in. I know I just jinx myself.
