Getting a CB error on the display

[ragtop69gs]

When I turn on the CB it shows the channel for a second or two then says "CBerr" then shuts off.

I've split the fairing and checked/cleaned the plug connections, this did nothing to fix the error.  This problem seem to be an after effect of my R/R failing a few months ago and putting 18v into the system.

Any ideas on what my next step should be?

Also checked plugs under the pillion seat.  At there any connections in the box other than the antenna plug?

Not really anything in the box.  I’ve had it out to make an adjustment but it was many years ago.  Don’t remember much.  I think it was 1999.

Power plug, DIN cable and antenna is all that's in the box. I've come to the conclusion that my overcurrent event from the failed R/R fried the cb unit.   Anyone have a cb unit to sell?

Jay, I had the same error code on my '03 when it was still under warranty and the dealer never did get it to work again. Kept swapping it out with reconditioned units but always the same error. When my '06 started doing it, out of warranty, I gave up on the CB. I only ever used it when riding with the VR's and that doesn't happen as much any more.

I just took the CB unit off my bike.  PM me and we can work out the details to get mine to you.

Ragtop, not sure if you are getting my PM replies but I sent you photos of what I have to confirm its correct and you can have it for the shipping cost.  I don't plan to use it and if it helps you out I'm happy to send it your way!

PM sent

I'm at a campground for the next week and service is spotty so if if I don't get right back to you it not because I'm ignoring you.

Thanks again, Jay
