Adjusting Your Power Commander
Your Power Commander has been programmed with a base
map for your application. You can adjust the base map or
install an alternate map using your computer. Please refer to
the supplied CD-Rom for more information.
You can also adjust your Power Commander using the face
plate buttons as described below.
NOTE: On some models, the injectors are powered down
shortly after turning the ignition on. To send a map, adjust the
throttle position or adjust the buttons you will need to use the
Power Adaptor (#66116001 or 76423001).
Plug the power adapter up to the Power Commander. Then
plug the 9 pin serial cable to the other side of the power
adapter (see figure).
The latest software and maps can be found at
www.powercommander.com
To adjust the buttons follow these steps:
1. Hold all three buttons down firmly.
2. While holding the buttons down connect the
battery to the power up adapter.
3. Release the buttons.
4. Select the range you wish to adjust: Low, Med,
High, by pushing the corresponding button
once.
5. At this point holding that button down will move
the lights down (leaning out the mixture).
6. Pushing the button repeatedly will move the light up (richening the mixture).
7. When the two center lights are lit up this is the “0” setting.

Trouble Shooting
If you feel that you are having any problems at all with the Power Commander III, disconnect it
from your motorcycle. This will allow the motorcycle to run directly off of the stock ECU.
The lights don’t come on when I turn the ignition switch on.
Check to make sure connectors are seated and the kill switch is in the “run” position.
The on-board adjustment buttons do not hold their settings.
Be sure to wait 20-30 seconds after making adjustments before starting or turning off the bike.
Can not upload to or download from the Power Commander III.
Check to see that the serial cable is firmly in place. Verify that ignition switch is on and the kill
switch is in the “run” position.
My mouse uses the same serial port.
If your computer has a PS/2 port purchase a DB9 to PS/2 adapter for your mouse.
I get a “verify failed....” message when I upload a map to the Power Commander III.
Programs running in the background or fluctuations in supply voltage (from outlet) can some-
times cause this error. In most cases, the information was sent properly to the Power
Commander III. Pushing the “upload all” button again should produce a “tables sent and veri-
fied” message.
I typed in notes, but they didn’t save.
You need to first push the “accept” button in the notes window and then the “save file” button.
