CALCXX Posted February 1, 2005 Share Posted February 1, 2005 Not on my bike. Carbs work great. :poke: Eliah washed his 02XX and now it runs rich and the FI lite glows steady wet fouled the plugs. What has he done? HELP!!!!!!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XXTi Posted February 1, 2005 Share Posted February 1, 2005 I can't imagine just washing the bike hurt anything unless he used a high pressure washer and flooded the ECM or something. Did he wash it with the seat off or something? There are two categories of "FI Light Stays Lit" in the '99-'00 manual. The '02 may be a little different. 1) Engine won't start. -open or short in ECM power line -faulty engine stop relay -faulty engine stop switch -faulty ignition switch -faulty bank angle sensor -faulty ECM -blown main fuse B(30A) -blown engine stop fuse (10A) -blown fuel pump fuse (30A) -open circuit in engine stop switch ground wire -engine stop switch off 2) Engine operates normally. -short circuit in the malfunction indicator wire -short circuit in service check connector wire -faulty ECM I'm not sure which one best describes his engine. It runs, but not normally. Is everything dried out? Could the service plug be soaked? Anyway, get a copy of the FI troubleshooting guide out of the manual and follow the instructions to reset the system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
birdie_xx Posted February 1, 2005 Share Posted February 1, 2005 The glowing FI may indicate a bad ground or a short in the harness. Check the grounds to the frame. Does it change when you flip the high beam switch or t.signals ? Cheers, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrdxx Posted February 1, 2005 Share Posted February 1, 2005 Could this be a manifestation of the dreaded wiring loom malfunction? http://www.sport-touring.net/cgi-bin/msgbo...0;entry258221 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CALCXX Posted February 1, 2005 Author Share Posted February 1, 2005 Thanks for the tips. Will print this advice and try to help Eliah. Thanks, Cal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mickcbr1100 Posted February 1, 2005 Share Posted February 1, 2005 Could this be a manifestation of the dreaded wiring loom malfunction? Won't be the connector/loom problem that only affects 99-00 bikes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackhawkxx Posted February 1, 2005 Share Posted February 1, 2005 Not on my bike. Carbs work great. That's what I think too. Always hearing about troubles with FI bikes while the carbed bikes just keep on running. :grin: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CALCXX Posted February 3, 2005 Author Share Posted February 3, 2005 When Eliah's XX is started (cold) it will high idle. FI lite blinks 9 times then pauses. Continues this pattern endlessly. Once warm, it idles down and runs real rough. Seems to to run "ok" from about 2500 rpm up. The FI light continues this pattern. Does this 9 count mean anything?

Open or short circuit in IAT circuit wire. Faulty IAT sensor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
