Sidestand Switch Error
#1
Posted 17 February 2010 - 05:59 pm
Turn it off and on again - starts first touch.
Get home, check out this forum and JBX pages, and do DIAG 20 to check switch operation - reads 'on' irrespective of stand position. However, switch operation checks out normally (cut's engine if sidestand dropped when in gear, won't start if down and in gear, starts fine if up etc).
Is the ECU confused? Do I need a new switch, or re-check connections (where are they???).
Advice appreciated.

There is a point in the ignition switch where everything appears "on" and the engine turns over, but it will not start - I have even had error code 19 come up (sidestand switch)
Turn off and return the key making sure the key is fully turned clockwise and no problem.
Things making more sense now.......interesting notes follow:
1. On diag mode 20, turn ignition switch a little to the left and "on" (sidestand up) becomes "off" (sidestand down) - even though the sidestand is down (see next point).
2. On my bike at least, diag 20 reports the position of the sidestand only if it is in gear. With the bike in gear, sidestand up = "on" and sidestand down = "off". With the bike in neutral, diag 20 = "on" allways.
3. Diag 21 reports bike in / out of gear as expected
So, looks like I suffered from not turning the key fully clockwise - problem solved. Little niggle however that diag 20 whilst being understandable isn't quite as per the manual .......

It's possible....had to squirt some ACF50 in it a week back as it was getting clunky (maybe worn key). It's 5 years old.....
