I have an audible alarm on my 2001 harley. With it not armed the siren will go off at random times. Also when I us the key fob to set it does not chirp.

Check to see if your vehicle honks when you press the "lock" button on your key fob. Press the "lock" button multiple times in a row. Many devices won't beep unless you double-tap the button after locking. If the horn doesn't honk, but the lights flash, your chirp feature is probably disabled.

Use your keyless fob and ignition key to enable the audible chirp. The process varies considerably on different makes and models. You must usually consult your owner's manual, a dealership or the alarm manufacturer for the correct process.

2007 Harley-Davidson Smart Security System Dealer Quick Start Guide
The new Harley-Davidson Smart Security System (H-DSSS) provides a transparent security
blanket for the customer's motorcycle. The design allows for self-arming and self-disarming
automatically and provides a transparent security environment.
Operation
The system arms itself within 5 seconds after the ignition is turned off and no vehicle
movement is detected. The Hands Free Fob does not need to be present to self-arm.
The alarm is activated if the system detects motion or if the ignition is turned on and the fob is
not present. The system can not detect whether the fob is in range at any other time.
Because the system is not communicating with the fob all the time, current draw is lower
(.7ma), and battery life is extended.
When the fob is present the system will disarm after motion is detected or the ignition is
turned on. The Personal Identification Number (PIN) may also be used to disarm the system.
The Smart security system will change the way the dealership interfaces with the vehicle.
The H-DSSS Impacts:
• Set-Up and Pre-Delivery process
• Service writers
• Transportation of motorcycle
• Servicing of motorcycle
• Customer expectations
Set-Up and Pre-Delivery Process
During Set-Up, the technician will need to use Digital Technician to assign the Hands Free
Fobs. The new bar code reader should be used to enter the 24 character number from the
bar code on the fob. Once assigned, the fobs should be tested immediately using Digital
Technician. The fobs have to be assigned and the PIN must be assigned to enable the
system. It doesn't matter what order this is done in. Since the system is self-arming, it is
absolutely important that the customer has the PIN and knows what to do (keep card) in the
event that the fob is lost or misplaced.
Tech Tip: Save the sheet that is attached to the carton when vehicle is uncrated and scan in
the bar code to fill in the VIN when starting the process with Digital Technician.

Service Writer - 2 choices
• Fob stays with vehicle
• System gets put into service mode
When vehicle comes in for service, make sure the keys and fob stay with the vehicle. For
vehicles that do not require the key to turn on the ignition, tie-wrap the fob to the mirror to
keep it with the vehicle. Another option is to use Digital Technician to put the system in
service mode. Once the system is put in service mode, the security system will be disabled
until the fob comes back into range and the ignition is cycled off\on\off.
Transportation of motorcycle (shipping)
If the vehicle is moved with the fob in range, the system will arm and disarm continuously. If
this is done for an extended period (shipping the vehicle) the battery may become
discharged. To move the motorcycle, without the system constantly arming/disarming, place
the vehicle in transport mode. This is done by placing the run/stop switch to stop, placing the
ignition switch in accessory mode, pressing both turn signal switches at the same time, and
placing the ignition switch to off. The turn signals will flash to provide a confirmation. Now the
system has motion detection disabled for one key cycle. The vehicle can be moved without
the alarm being activated. The alarm may still be activated if the ignition is turned on and the
fob is not present. This is useful for trailering or shipping the vehicle. The customer may also
use transportation mode for loading or washing the vehicle.
Servicing the motorcycle
The system should be disarmed when servicing the vehicle requires disconnecting the
battery, siren, or HFSM. To disconnect power, turn the ignition on with fob in range (or use
PIN) to disarm security. The Maxi-fuse can now be removed while the key is on, or within five
seconds after the key is turned off. Failure to disarm and remove maxi-fuse before
disconnecting the Smart siren will cause the siren to cycle (VERY LOUD and undesirable).
Placing the system in service mode will also allow the system to be serviced and
disconnected.

when it comes to electrics and harleys always buy the harley davidson oem stator right from your local dealership.

if you have the siren added to the system, there is a special 9volt battery in side the siren unit and it has reached its usable life and needs replacing. if you do not have a siren replace the batteries in the key fobs low voltage on them can also cause a problem.

Harley alarms, while a decent alarm system, are notoriously hard to set up. On a new installation I have sometimes had to run the set-up routine 4-5 times. I hope you have an owner's manual and/or good instructions. Keep trying to set the alarm up from the beginning. If you miss a key or time limit it's not unusual to have the set-up fail and you have to start all over. Disconnecting the battery will screw things up, so be careful.
