^at least thats what they tell you, so they could make a killing on labor charges.

 

if you know somebody close that has an f4i you could swap the ecu and see what happens

 

Ok so im just gonna run down a list to make sure that i didnt miss anything, to bypass the bas i removed it at the clip and cut the red and green wires and spliced them together leaving the middle white one alone?? If thats wrong say so i replaced oil spark plugs battery fuses checked every hose line and plug but i still have no spark... as far as the ecu goes i have a friend with one but he is taking forever to get it to me so until i do get it i wanna try absolutely everything else possible, thnx guys!!

 

...

 

so this weekend i took my bike apart and checked every wire and plug possibel. i found some random things unplugged that i fixed but still the bike just cranks... also i dont know if this helps any but i found out when i turn my bike on the red light i think its an oil light stays on as well as the digital oil symbol flashes at me BUT if i keep the throttle open for a few seconds they both shut off and turn back on when the throttle is closed... any oil sensor i need to know about that could be my problem??

 

Throttle position sensor?

 

where is the throttle position sensor located?? also how do i check the fuel cut off relay and the engine cut off relay?? check them with the multimeter?

 

did you check the big wiring harness by the left intake?? my bike did something very similar...one of the wires in the corner (green insulation) wasn't making very good contact unplugged it and replugged it and it worked. started the bike up & wiggled the harness and the bike shut off in certain positions it would prime ok and in others it would just shut down. ended up just putting a very slight twist in the pin with a pair of needle nose pliers. when i plugged it back together i could move the harness all over the place and it wouldn't shut down.

 

my bike is doing the exact same thing and cant get it to start either!! how can you check and ecu out to tell if its bad or not?

 

im not sure how to check the ecu besides swapping them but there should be a way... an update on mine i finally got a multimeter today and checked a few things... the first were the wires to the fuel pump and they registered in the negative from .05 to .02... i then found the two relays by the tail section and one reads up to 12 and the other one doesnt read at all... also the relay just under the seat with the 30 fuse in it read the same up to 12... so im guessing i first need to replace that relay and see what happens?? how do i tell which relay it is or are some interchangable?
