Rear shock adjustment failure.

[Pippin]

Riding a 2016 Limited. After only 1500 miles the soft/hard adjustment quit working. After several days in the shop and several calls to the factory, it was discovered that a diode wrapped as part of the main harness had gone bad. The factory techs didn't know it was in the harness and it is not on the wiring diagrams. A new harness was the cure. Must have been a lot of hair pulling on that one. Just FYI.

Typo... 2015 Limited.

I hate it when they do something like that and don't put it in the prints. Wastes a lot of trouble shooting time. Thanks for the warning.

I will make an assumption that the diode was across the coil of relay R1, but stuck up into the harness where it can not be seen. Do you know if that is an accurate assumption?

Mine is in the shop right now for the same problem.

I had the inline fuse go on my 440 and I just could not find the jam fuse ( which end up to be a wire )


Ohmned out the entire harness

They must not have looked at the wiring diagram too well. It's there. It's in the lower left corner of the diagram in section C2. It's labelled the D3 diode. Keeping my fingers crossed that mine doesn't fail.

I don't know how carefully they read the schematic or if the diode was across relay R1. I do know they were desperate enough to take a harness off a new RT and put it on mine.
