I just got a 2001 929rr. It has a scorpion slip on, k&n filter, and powercommander. When I got it, it had an injector leaking. I replaced the o-ring and fixed that. Now, when I start it, it will idle for a few seconds, then rev up a little bit, FI light will come on and a red light next to the neutral light comes on, the idle goes up and down, then real low around 500rpm then dies. While I am riding it, it runs fine, has plenty of power. I pull up to a light and it dies unless I give it gas.

I rode it earlier today for the longest I have ridden it, come up to a light and it didn't die. I look down, the FI light and the red light are off. I continue riding and the lights stayed off and it idled fine at every light. Gas light came on so I stop to get gas. I turn the bike off, go in pay for my gas, come out pump my gas, start it and it runs for a few seconds, then same old story. Funky idle followed by the lights coming on and the bike dying. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks, Harley

 

Could be a few things. Take the front seat off & short the connector on the right side of the battery. Should be a white 3 pin connector & have a green wire on one side & brown wire on the other with the middle being open. A paper clip is ok. Turn the key on & count the blinks. How many are there? This will tell us what code the FI system is kicking out. Count the blinks & get back with us. I think the red light you are talking about is the oil light.

 

Well if it is the oil light, it comes on at the same time the FI comes on, which seems odd to me, and it has oil in it.

 

OK, when I jump the two wires in that connector and turn the key on, the FI light stays solid and the red light I was referring to earlier blinks. I tried my best to right the blinks down and this is what I got:

short blink
pause
short blink
pause
2 short blinks
pause
8 short blinks
pause
one long blink
9 short blinks
pause
3 longer blinks
4 short blinks
3 longer blinks
5 short blinks
pause
2 short blinks
pause
8 short blinks
(i think this is where it started over)
