Basically unplug the stock sensor and plug in the Zipper's 02 sensor connector. Route the rear lead between the transmission top cover and the starter then towards the ABS caddy. Removing the factory ECM. Remove the factory ECM by spreading the plastic latches that secure it and lift up and to the right to release it. To release the wiring from the ECM press the release button and move the locking bar to the full rearward position. Care must be taken to make sure the bar is in the full rearward position and then remove the connector from the ECM. Note the gray locking slider. With the factory ECM removed, continue routing the wires from the Thunder Max through the opening on the right side of the frame below the down tube and towards the ECM holder. If the motorcycle has a factory alarm as mine did simply detach the alarm antenna from the clip and slide it out of the way Do Not Disconnect. Insert the Auto Tune harness into the Thunder Max with the logo facing up and secure with the two screws. Make sure that the gasket is seated all the way in the connector, make sure the locking bar is all the way open and then install to the Thunder Max Important: You must be sure every thing slides into place smoothly and that it is all the way in before engaging the locking bar. Replace the Thunder Max into the exact same factory position. Connect the oxygen sensor harnesses to the Auto Tune Harness. Make sure that all the wires are clear and away from hot and moving parts. Secure the harnesses with wire ties. Re-install the ECM fuse. It is a good idea to lubricate it and all the other fuses with dielectric grease That is how easy it is to install the new ECM. Now back to the computer. Follow the instructions that come with the kit they are step by step and easy to follow. You will end up down loading a base map. Which map you use will be determined by what if anything you have done to your engine. The program will give you options just pick the one that is closest to what you have. Once you have selected all the information that applies to you, you hook up the computer to the module with the supplied cable and send the information to your new ThunderMax ECM. IMPORTANT STEP BEFORE STARTING MOTORCYCLE This is required for a new module install or when interruption of 12 volt power takes place. Turn the ignition switch on and the handlebar switch to run for at least 20 seconds. Then cycle the ignition switch off and on and start the engine. Let the motorcycle idle on its own for at least 15 seconds. Turn off the ignition and then restart the motorcycle. Normal idle speed should be attained depending on engine temperature. The warm up cycle will have slightly higher idle speed than a warm engine and will go lower as the engine warms up. I went for a ride and going up the ramp on to the interstate I grabbed a hand full and the motorcycle accelerated quickly. Just to see what the rev-limiter was set at I hit slightly over 6000 RPM. As I shifted gears I was quickly over the speed limit and still had two more gears to go. I do not remember ever changing a part that was so easy to install and made such a difference in performance as the Thunder Max did.
