NHTSA Campaign Number: 22V030
Manufacturer Harley-Davidson Motor Company
Components ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Potential Number of Units Affected 3,917
Summary
Harley Davidson Motor Company (Harley-Davidson) is recalling certain 2021 Pan America 1250S (RA1250S), Pan America 1250 (RA1250), and Sportster S (RH1250S) motorcycles. The instrument cluster module may not display the speedometer and neutral indicator at start-up when the module is below freezing temperatures. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 123, “Motorcycle Controls and Displays.”
Remedy
Dealers will update the instrument cluster module software, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed February 8, 2022. Owners may contact Harley-Davidson customer service at 1-800-258-2464. Harley-Davidson
’s number for this recall is 0631.
Notes
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.nhtsa.gov.
Check for Harley-Davidson Recalls
Purpose for Service Bulletin
This bulletin informs dealers that Harley-Davidson has identified a Instrument Module (IM) software error on 2021 Pan America and Sportster S models.
When the internal IM temperature is below freezing 0 °C (32 °F), the IM display may generate an error message. Shortly thereafter, it goes blank until the next ignition cycle when the IM temperature is above freezing.
If the warning is ignored and the vehicle is operated, the speedometer and neutral indicator would not be visible as required by FMVSS No. 123.
NOTE
Our testing indicates that, due to the self-heating characteristics of the IM, this condition can occur only at a cold start-up when the IM temperature is below freezing.

Chronology :
12/16/2021 – Harley-Davidson’s Technical Subcommittee (TSC) was made aware of an alleged incident on a 2021 Pan America motorcycle, via H-D’s Customer Service Department, in which the instrument cluster displayed an error message, “Display Temperature – Please allow to cool down,” and a temperature alert icon. When this occurred, no vehicle information was reportedly visible on the instrument cluster screen. Harley-Davidson
’s TSC initiated an investigation with the assistance of members from Harley-Davidson
’s Engineering and Product Regulatory Affairs teams.
12/16/2021 – 1/4/2022 – The TSC conducted a root cause and scope analysis. The TSC’s investigation indicated that the instrument cluster will display the error, followed by a black screen, until the internal temperature of the instrument cluster is above 32F/ 0C and an ignition cycle occurs. In addition, testing performed by engineering indicated that the instrument cluster will self-heat during vehicle operation, such that the error could not be induced while the instrument was powered, even when operated at external temperatures as low as -15C.
1/06/2022 – The Field Action Committee (FAC) reviewed the TSC’s findings and analysis and escalated the matter to H-D’s Executive Decision Authority (EDA).
1/18/2022 – Based upon the information developed during the investigation, the EDA determined that this condition may constitute a noncompliance with FMVSS 123 and authorized a voluntary recall to address this condition. There have been no reports of any accidents or injuries related to this issue.

IMPORTANT RECALL INFORMATION Regulatory Non-Compliance Recall Campaign 0631 MY21 Pan America and Sportster S Instrument Temperature Error To: Worldwide Dealers Roles: Dealer Operator, General Manager, All P&A Roles, All Service Roles, Vehicle Sales Manager February 01, 2022 Dear Dealer: Harley-Davidson has learned that due to a software error in the instrument cluster module on certain 2021 Harley-Davidson Pan America and Sportster S motorcycles (see model list below), when the instrument cluster temperature is below freezing, the display unit may generate an error message and, shortly thereafter, go blank until the next ignition cycle when the instrument cluster temperature is above freezing. If the warning is ignored and the vehicle is operated, the speedometer and neutral indicator would not be visible as required by US, Canadian, and ECE regulations.1 Note: Our testing indicates that, due to the self-heating characteristics of the instrument cluster, this condition can occur only at cold start-up when the instrument cluster temperature is below freezing. We have voluntarily declared that this condition constitutes a regulatory non-compliance to allow us to formally recall (Campaign 0631) all affected motorcycles. The remedy is to first confirm that the motorcycles are covered by this recall. If covered, perform the recommended recall update per Service Bulletin M1549 (the “Bulletin”) to update the software in the instrument cluster module. The Bulletin outlines the repair and credit procedures for the recall update and additional relevant information. In the interest of our customers’ satisfaction, and as required by federal law, you may sell but not deliver any affected motorcycles until the recall remedy is complete. Please refer to H-Dnet / My Toolbox / Warranty Campaign Center. Select “Safety Campaign Open VIN list,” then select “0631” Campaign to view the VIN list. In accordance with federal regulations administered by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) and other appropriate market-specific government agencies, Harley-Davidson or authorized Harley-Davidson dealers will provide notice to all owners of record of affected products with direction to arrange for the recall service. If you have any questions related to this recall, you can contact us at: • U.S. dealers: Call 800-664-7762 and select the appropriate prompts • International dealers: Contact their regional office 1 Per Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) and Canadian Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (CMVSS) No. 123, Motorcycle controls and displays, if a motorcycle is equipped with a speedometer and/or neutral indicator, these functions must meet certain visibility requirements. In addition, UN/ECE Regulation No. 39 requires motorcycles to be equipped with a visible speedometer. We take pride in the quality standards and controls we employ in our drive to lead the industry and deliver the world’s most desirable motorcycles. Thank you for your cooperation.

Avenue Tulsa Oklahoma 74146 Country : United States Chronology : 12/16/2021 – Harley-Davidson’s Technical Subcommittee (TSC) was made aware of an alleged incident on a 2021 Pan America motorcycle, via H-D’s Customer Service Department, in which the instrument cluster displayed an error message, “Display Temperature – Please allow to cool down,” and a temperature alert icon. When this occurred, no vehicle information was reportedly visible on the instrument cluster screen. Harley- Davidson’s TSC initiated an investigation with the assistance of members from Harley-Davidson’s Engineering and Product Regulatory Affairs teams. 12/16/2021 – 1/4/2022 – The TSC conducted a root cause and scope analysis. The TSC’s investigation indicated that the instrument cluster will display the error, followed by a black screen, until the internal temperature of the instrument cluster is above 32F/ 0C and an ignition cycle occurs. In addition, testing performed by engineering indicated that the instrument cluster will self-heat during vehicle operation, such that the error could not be induced while the instrument was powered, even when operated at external temperatures as low as -15C. 1/06/2022 – The Field Action Committee (FAC) reviewed the TSC’s findings and analysis and escalated the matter to H-D’s Executive Decision Authority (EDA). 1/18/2022 – Based upon the information developed during the investigation, the EDA determined that this condition may constitute a noncompliance with FMVSS 123 and authorized a voluntary recall to address this condition. There have been no reports of any accidents or injuries related to this issue.
