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 ยฐC (32 ยฐF), 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.
Motorcycles Affected
2021 RA1250, RA1250S, RH1250S
Markets Affected
All markets are affected except Brazil.
1. Verify that vehicle is part of recall 0631.
NOTE

Chronology :
12/16/2021 โ Harley-Davidson
โs Technical Subcommittee (TSC) was made aware of an alleged incident on a 2021 Pan America motorcycle, via H-Dโs Customer Service Department, in which the instrument cluster displayed an error message, โDisplay Temperature โ Please allow to cool down,โ and a temperature alert icon. When this occurred, no vehicle information was reportedly visible on the instrument cluster screen. Harley-Davidson
โs TSC initiated an investigation with the assistance of members from Harley-Davidson
โs Engineering and Product Regulatory Affairs teams.
12/16/2021 โ 1/4/2022 โ The TSC conducted a root cause and scope analysis. The TSCโs 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 โ The Field Action Committee (FAC) reviewed the TSCโs findings and analysis and escalated the matter to H-Dโs Executive Decision Authority (EDA).
1/18/2022 โ 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.

Production Dates : MAY 21, 2021 – DEC 03, 2021 VIN Range 1 : Begin : 1HD1ZC42XMB305005 End : 1HD1ZC417MB318088 โ Not sequential Description of Noncompliance : Description of the Noncompliance : Due to an error in the instrument cluster module software in the recalled population, the instrument cluster may not display the speedometer or neutral indicator as required by FMVSS 123 if the temperature of the instrument cluster is below 32 degrees Fahrenheit (0 degrees Celsius). Testing indicates that the instrument cluster will self-heat during vehicle operation, such that this condition can only occur at cold start-up when the instrument cluster temperature is below freezing. FMVSS 1 : 123 – Motorcycle controls and displays FMVSS 2 : NR Description of the Safety Risk : If an error message is displayed at vehicle start-up and the operator ignores the warning and decides to operate the vehicle anyway, that decision may increase the risk of a crash due to the lack of a speedometer and/or neutral indicator. Description of the Cause : The instrument cluster module contains a software error. Identification of Any Warning that can Occur : If a vehicle within the recall population is started when the temperature of the instrument cluster is below 32F / 0C, an error message will appear.

โs Technical Subcommittee (TSC) was made aware of an alleged incident on a 2021 Pan America motorcycle, via H-Dโs Customer Service Department, in which the instrument cluster displayed an error message, โDisplay Temperature โ Please allow to cool down,โ and a temperature alert icon. When this occurred, no vehicle information was reportedly visible on the instrument cluster screen. Harley- Davidsonโs TSC initiated an investigation with the assistance of members from Harley-Davidson
โs Engineering and Product Regulatory Affairs teams. 12/16/2021 โ 1/4/2022 โ The TSC conducted a root cause and scope analysis. The TSCโs 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 โ The Field Action Committee (FAC) reviewed the TSCโs findings and analysis and escalated the matter to H-Dโs Executive Decision Authority (EDA). 1/18/2022 โ 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. Part 573 Safety Recall Report 22V-030 Page 4 The information contained in this report was submitted pursuant to 49 CFR ยง573 Description of Remedy : Description of Remedy Program : The software in the instrument cluster modules, part numbers 70900896 and 70900897, will be updated. Owners of affected motorcycles will be advised to arrange service with an authorized Harley-Davidson
dealer, who will perform the remedy at no charge to the customer. Pursuant to 49 CFR 577.11(e), Harley-Davidson
requests that it be exempt from providing a notification of a reimbursement plan. Any pre-notification product failure would have been addressed under the manufacturerโs limited warranty. Accordingly, no person would be eligible for reimbursement pursuant to 573.13. How Remedy Component Differs from Recalled Component : The software update does not contain the error that causes this condition in the recalled vehicles. Identify How/When Recall Condition was Corrected in Production : Updated software was introduced into production on approximately 12/27/2022. Recall Schedule : Description of Recall Schedule : Harley-Davidson
will notify the dealer network between 2/01/2022 and 2/08/2022. Owner notification letters will be sent between 2/08/2022 and 2/15/2022. Planned Dealer Notification Date : FEB 01, 2022 – FEB 08, 2022 Planned Owner Notification Date : FEB 08, 2022 – FEB 15, 2022 * NR – Not Reported
