Tonights fight action...finally got the bike RUNNING it didn't kick my ass after all..it may just break my wallet though!
Well after tearing out my hair trying to figure this out....I'm telling you the FREAKIN Ecm was playing tricks....everytime I'd check the R/Or coming from the BAS..i'd have 9v where I should have 0 to 1....then all of a sudden..there would be 0volts present...I was ready to kill. I kept thinking the BAS was bad.
Well....a good friend came over to help..and after finally figuring out what powered what and how it worked we got the damn thing to run.
Minus part of the ECM!!
We ended up forcefully grounding the Br/Bl wire coming from the Fuel Cut relay and just taping it off coming out off the ECM. What I basically ended up doing was forcing the relay to close which in turn forces the fuel pump on. The bike will start no problems and runs great.....Now the consecunquences(spelling?). The only way to kill the fuel pump is with either the key or the kill switch. The bike will only start in neutral..no matter what.. the side stand could be down, clutch pulled in, in gear...all that doesn't matter,the bike "MUST" be in neutral.
Now on Monday....I'm going to call American Honda and talk to them about the ECM and the Emissions Act that Swampnut made me aware of. The only problem I might have is that Pa. is "NOT YET" a state that checks for emissions. Hopefully this doesn't matter. After that I'll call the local dealers and see what they'll do if anything.
Have to thank Northman....he did suggest forcing the fuel cut relay. i just was afraid not knowing the exact way the electricals worked. But in the end he was right! Another BEER for the Canandian at NEXXT2!!
Joe..thanx for everything.
NOW.....If Honda DOESN'T COVER THE ECM I'll be looking for a replacement.....
DOES ANYONE HAVE OR NOW OF ONE THAT I CAN BUY?
Ron Ayers lists a new one for around $500 (I think w/o checking)
Thanx everyone for the help!!
