FiXXation Posted August 7, 2007 Share Posted August 7, 2007 After riding through a heavy wind-blown rain (whiteout conditions), I noticed the digital dash's power up self-test sequence now completes in less than half a second. It appears that it may try to do the same light show that it used to, but now it is so fast that I'm not sure. The lights, indicators, and read-outs seem to work OK, it's just the test sequence that is hyper fast. Has anybody run into this situation before?

FiXXation Posted August 8, 2007 Author Share Posted August 8, 2007 Last night with a fan running on the bike, as it was drying out, the normal dash check sequence started happening if I did a quick ignition key off/on cycle of less than 3 seconds. Otherwise, the hyper quick dash check would happen on first key on after a rest, or longer than 3 seconds between off/on cycles. This afternoon, after a rest, the dash check cycle is normal on first key on, then hyper short after a quick key off/on cycle. For all I know, this behavior is normal, as I didn't pay much attention to it before yesterday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FiXXation Posted August 8, 2007 Author Share Posted August 8, 2007 Now, as of about 24 hours after the problem appeared, it is gone. I now get a full dash indicator/light check on every power on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warp11XX Posted August 8, 2007 Share Posted August 8, 2007 Sounds like you're about to get well aquainted with a few beers and a tube of dielectric silicone grease on a rainy Saturday afternoon... Nooooo....not on that....in the plugs and connectors... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FiXXation Posted August 8, 2007 Author Share Posted August 8, 2007 I wish I had some idea which connectors I should go after. After it started working normally, I noticed the fuel pump pressure up time was also involved. It was much shorter during the hyper check period, and it seemed that there was a little bogging when taking off from rest during that time. But, with the roads wet, I wasn't trying to torque away, either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warp11XX Posted August 9, 2007 Share Posted August 9, 2007 I wish I had some idea which connectors I should go after. That's easy . Start with all of them, and then do two extras just to be sure.... Don't forget the grounds either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
