Just got it firing!
Starting issue on my 06 Breva 1100.
The bike was put in the garage for two months, battery removed
(A couple of days before I got some rain)
Two months later pushed the start button: "clanck" but no crank. Shit... I thought I wouldn't go through this again when installed an MPH-like cable kit two years ago...
I spent a whole day together with a friend, an automotive electrician, trying to figure out...
- battery used is brand new and poles are clean
- earth point over the start motor cleaned
- ecu sockets cleaned
- fuses are fine
- engine off, I get 12,8V on battery poles, on dashboard 11,8V.
- engine on, 13,8V on poles, never got more than 13,6V on dashboard
We found out is that connecting the start button to the start relay, thus bypassing the ECU, the engine starts perfectly.
Seems like the ECU sees something it doesn't like...
Any clues of what can be the cause?
How indicative is the dashboard reading?
And last, what will happen if I just leave it like that (ecu bypass)?
