CB Help

[Mike R]

Feeling stupid....need help.

I can't get the cb radio to turn on. Have only had the bike a short time. I had the cb working for awhile but can't access it now. When I cycle throughout the on/off switch I only get the stereo or "Aux", the "CB" never comes up on the display.
What am I doing wrong? Have a ride planned for tomorrow morning and I'd really like to be able to use it.

Thanks,

Mike

+1.

If it is not showing CB, that means you have lost the connection to the CB, and the controller does not know it is there.  You need to unplug and replug the connector several times to make contact again. Might want to tape the connector with black tape when it is working good.

Did as you suggested and works like a champ. Who new Microsoft was involved with Honda!

Thank you for the advice.

I had the same problem too. My battery cover would split the two ends since it sat right on top of them. I ended up cutting away a little bit of the battery box so the cable could sit further down. I haven't had any problems since then.

the old "are you sure it's plugged in?" ploy eh?
