i double chcked the plugs against my manual, and they are correct. I have the red light constantly on, and the oil light is on. Is that the problem? my bike will not start now, and i dont want to spend mega money at a stealership to fix something prob very small..


plz help.

 

i read that my triclke charger could have fried my battery? is that possible. I have left it hooked up, and it goes to fully charged.
could that have freid the battery, causing the ecm to not have the proper voltage or something, which would trip the ecm light?

 

doubtful, did u leave the battery hooked up while on the trickle charger? because a solid light also indicated a faulty ECM

 

yeah, i did.. im gonna double check all the relays with a multi meter, and the fuses too.

 

i changed the gas in the bike, thinking it may be the problem.I checked the ecm, and its plugged in ok. I checked all of the fuses and relays. Still not starting. It cranks, like it wants to start, but wolnt actually start.

Also, the throttle cable doesnt have any real spring to it, it kinda sticks wherever i leave it.
I also checked the pgm-fi memory and showed code 18- or bad cam pulse generator. This would cause the engine to shut down and not start. I cleared the code to no avail. I really am stumped here. Shes got oil, coolant. It ran fine last friday when i picked her up, and now she wolnt.

Maybe i need to change the plugs again, ???

any futher help would be awsome.

 

tested the ecm.. all grounds and power wires are good.. maybe fpr is bad?

 

ya hard to test a bike over the internet

 

i called the guy who i bought the bike from. He suggested that i replace or atleast clean the plugs again. He think i might have flooded them by hitting the throttle while starting the bike. I thought it might not be getting enough fuel. On weds, im gonna pull the plugs, clean em and try to do a leak down test on the cyls. I am not sure about doing a compression test, because i believe you have to be near opp temp to perform one. Since i cant start the bike, it might make it difficult.
does the manual have the compresion numbers for the cyclinders? anyone know them off hand.

I am hoping that i just flooded the bike, and it ran like do-do because of a possible air leak when i removed the airbox the first time. She fired right up, but it was cold, and perhaps i didnt have the airbox all the way tight on the throttle bodies ( intake shafts)

 

take the plugs out and look, if wet, then it's flooded.. clean them and try to push start it and if it starts, rev it up and burn that fuel asap
also, yes it does say to have the engine at normal, and compression is 174/PSI,

do you ahve the manual - page 8-4 has the compression test on there

i dont think u have a serious problem.. i think ur plugs are fouled

 

thats what im banking on. Litteraly, i gots no bank to fix anything else..lol

i will update all on weds, when i do futher testing at my buddies race shop. Thanks again for all who helped out. Really appreciate it.
