Got on my bike at work, when I put on ignition the ecu light blinks 15 times, evenly timed then goes out. Bike is running fine and no light once on the go, anyone else experienced this as I can't find this error code in the handbook

Got on my bike at work, when I put on ignition the ecu light blinks 15 times, evenly timed then goes out. Bike is running fine and no light once on the go, anyone else experienced this as I can't find this error code in the handbook
So when you say reset the ecu do you mean unplug and re plug?
OP, do you mean 15 flashes e.g. 1 long flash = 10 plus 5 short flashes = 5 (10+5=15). Or, alternatively are you seeing 15 short flashes? If it's the latter, then it's a service interval code, meaning your bike is due for service. You aren't likely to find reference to that latter code in the manual should you have it.
Thanks Bikerdoc, yes my dealer has just confirmed that this occurs every 100 hours apparently so it will be reset when I get the bike in for its 1000 mile service saturday morning. Looking forward to being beyond the run in period so I can explore the performance of the machine properly
All sorted, EFI light is now reset. A sim
Did you watch the method of how the dealer reset the error code? It's useful to know how to clear that for a not-so-important code like your NK had...
Sorry I'm afraid I didn't watch, or ask, I was down the road overdosing on espresso and fish and chips:0)
Now thats taking the piss sorry i mean Fish & chips how i wish to have some! one of the main things i have missed here in China is to have some nice Cod and chips you have just upset me lol but then again i smoke to much but here in china i save £5000 a year compared to the prices in the UK so i cant have it allways Ho fags are only 60p a pack here in China and petrol is only 72p L and my gas bill was £30 for the year and the council tax/ service charges i paid £35 again for the year so it not all bad
:thumbsup:
Hi buddy, can't you get your dealer to reset it? I did go back to my dealer but he wasn't happy to share how its done, I understand its a manual thing
I will ask
Resetting the error code (series of flashes) or eliminating it on the 650NK/650TR is pretty simple:
Here's a selection of different methods.
WOT = (twist throttle wide open [Wide Open Throttle])
1. Apply WOT (full throttle)
2. Turn ignition key to ON position.
3. Wait until the red FI/F1 light illuminates (be patient as this can take longer than normal).
4. As soon as red F1 appears,
5. Flick the kill switch to the 'ON' ignition position (meaning starter button won't work).
6. Let go of the WOT (throttle).
7. Wait several seconds.
8. Turn ignition key OFF.
9. Flick kill switch back to ignition ON position.
That's it, red F1 should be reset. To test you got it right, simply turn ignition key back to 'on' and the red FI/F1 light should illuminate for the short period as the ECU/ECM goes through it's checks.
Alternatively:
1. Apply WOT (full throttle)
2. Turn ignition key to ON position.
3. Wait until the red F/F1 light illuminates (be patient as this can take longer than normal).
4. As soon as red F1 appears,
5. Flick the kill switch to the 'NO' ignition position (meaning starter button won't work).
6. Let go of the WOT (throttle).
7. Wait several seconds.
8. Flick kill switch back to ignition ON position with the ignition key still in the ON position too.
Alternatively:
1. Apply WOT (full throttle)
2. Turn the key to the ON position (don't start the bike)
3. Keep WOT (approx.30 secs)
4. The red FI light will have one long flash
5. Let go of WOT
6. Switch the key off.
That's it should red F1 be reset. The red FI/F1 light should illuminate for the short period as the ECU/ECM goes through it's checks as per normal.
Further alternative if neither of the previous two options work for you:
1. Apply WOT (full throttle)
2. Turn ignition key to ON position.
3. Wait until the red F1 light illuminates (be patient as this can take longer than normal).
4. As soon as red F1 appears,
5. Release WOT (throttle),
6. Flick the kill switch to the 'NO' ignition position (meaning starter button won't work).
7. Wait five (5) seconds.
8. Flick kill switch back to ignition ON position with the ignition key still in the ON position too.
9. Turn ignition key to OFF position.
10. Turn ignition key to ON position.
11. Check that red F1 light illuminates in the normal manner.
That's should resest the red F1. The red FI/F1 light should illuminate for the short period as the ECU/ECM goes through it's checks as per normal.
Remember:
The error code sequence of flashes should be cleared, except where the cause of the error still exists. So what this is really useful for is to clear the error code for the "service" reminder/due (15 flashes = 1 long + 5 short).
In a worst case scenario one can always disconnect the battery (disconnect the earth/negative) for >10 minutes, this should clear any error codes.
Thank you very much Doc .....
Nice one Doc, really useful post, I copied and pasted it to a word file for my own reference.
Also pasted and stickied it into the maintenance section.
