Another F1 Fault
Posted: |November 15th, 2016|, 10:40 am
Well yesterday was our first hottish day at 37ºC and the bike did not want to play. On the 50km trip home at idle was really stuttering and then cutting out got up to 103ºC at one point, came up with an F1 code which is permanent and would have trouble starting. the code clears when i turn the ignition off and then on again, (at no point did i hear the fan cut in )
Got it home had the seat off which is packed full of wires with a power commander etc and jesus it was hot under there.
On Saturday just gone I had a flat battery which has never happened before, put on trickle charge and got all the way to a float charge with no issues. i have a ctek quick connect which i added a few months ago but this is only the second time I have used the trickle charge.
This morning set off for work but didnt get to the end of the street with misfiring and jerking like it does around the 3000rpm point but this time at all rpm's got it back home and was again the wiring loom was seriously warm as did the battery feel pretty toastie.
Supposedly there is a way of checking dealer mode using a shorting wire so will have to give that a go after finding the thread on here but any other suggestions would be helpful
