    Try scanning on the other sym rate
    If you tried 6952 try 6887 or Bruit force wont do any harm

    have tried scan on both sym 6952 brings up all channels i had before but alot of the channels are blank
    put manual scan on , started scan , scan transponder screen comes up then nothing happens do i need to be doing anything to get manual scan going?

    as for bruit force was going to throw it out window (but dont think it will really help)lol

    any ideas what to try next?

    Havent used sportster for years mate
    Some were in the settings possibly sportster menu
    you will find some Ucodes write down how they are setup now and change them you cant do any harm like this
    Best 2 are 001a and 0014 so try this
    If that dont work try changeing cams
    There are three options Megcamb .Newcamb And Evocamb
    This should get you a result Lets KNow ..........paul
