Literally just fitted a new end can and needed to take off the exhaust valve and servo set up and now, as sort of expected the 'F1' code keeps coming on, on the dash with the associated red warning light. How do I stop this, is it best to re - fit the servo motor or can I dis - connect the servo connection at the EMU?
I hope I am not likely to damage anything by doing any of this, but I have no doubt that loads of CBR owners have experienced this same problem and will have a resolution for me.
Any ideas?

 

If you removed the servo you need to reinstall it and plug it in or you'll get a code. Also, if you rotated the pulley on the servo when you removed the exhaust flapper cable you need to rotate it back to the home position or you'll get a code. The home position is where the notch in the pulley, where the cable slips through, is facing toward the rear of the bike.



BTW, someone on another forum designed and sells a servo eliminator plug so that you can remove the servo completely and it won't give you a fault light. A very good product at a very reasonable price. Here's a link right to him:

RJ,
Thanks for your reply and for taking the time out to offer some advice. I was coming around to fitting the servo back in place, but would not have realised about re - alignment, so thanks for your help here.

I'll follow up once re - fitted to confirm the outcome.
Cheers
