MUX switches


Recommended Posts

I have a new 08' VTX and I was told there is a factory recall on the MUX switches. Has anyone else heard of this? I have had a few problems with the LED lights flickering whith the engine running and I wonder if this would fix the problem. I also had the factory stereo quit. The dealer said they will replace the black box when they do the 20 hour service. Is anyone else having problems that I can get fixed before they happen to me while I have it at the dealership (not very close to get to). Thanx

I know it will fix the light flicker not sure about the stereo. make sure the dealer checks all of the 08 issues. I think there are thre or four others. not to big a deal realy. your dealer should be aware of all of this. I know malibu is doing some sort of 08 check list as there were a number of little issues.

Do you know what the other issues are?

replace throttle

reflash ECM

I hadn't heard about reflashing the ECM. I am 3.5 hrs from my dealer so I talked them and Malibu into shipping the throttle control and a replacement MUX when one died. Do I need to have the dealer reflash the ECM this fall when I take my boat in for additional warranty repairs?

There is a calibration to make the catalyst sensors less sensitive, customers were getting too many fault codes from the cat sensor tripping.

No recall on the MUX switches, your dealer has the details but mainly they want to know what version MUX switches you have.
