If it's blinking, I think it's giving you a trouble code. You need note how many blinks there are, and any pauses etc.
I JUST FOUND OUT HOW TO DO THE TEST AND IT BLINKS 7 TIMES AND PAUSE 7 TIMES,ANY IDEAS?
Code #7 is the "up/down shift button code" .. You should check the coupler for the left handlebar switch , it is on the left side just in front of the fuel tank .. It is a 10p coupler and it should be checked for moisture then cleaned & greased with dielectric grease ...
OK,I CLEANED THE CONN AND IT FAILED. HOWEVER IT FLASHES 3 TIMES THEN 7 TIMES WHAT DO YOU THINK?
you need to reset the ECM after you cleaned it first then try it.
Code #3 is gear position switch system ( L, D , N , R) or relater wire harness .. You should clean & re-grease all the ESP couplers on the bike .. Then erase the stored codes , then initialize the ECM and test the bike again ...
i SPRAYED THE CONNECTIONS WITH SOME STP WIRE DRER AND LET THEM SIT FOR ABOUT AN HOUR THEN PUT NEW GREASE IN THEM.I RESET THE COMPUTER AND IT WAS FINE FOR ABOUT 5 MINS AND DONE THE SAME THING,THEN DONE THE PROCEDURE AGAIN AND THE SAME OUTCOME.
You will have to follow the Hondamatic flow chart test chart for the bike ... Do you have a shop manual with the tests ..?
YES,I JUST BOUGHT ONE.I TRIED RESETTIN THE COMPUTER LIKE THE BOOK SAID BUT IT ISNT WORKIN.
