I've been fighting some electrical gremlins with my 5k mile 2006 Breva 1100. When I bought the bike (used), I was able to get it running, took it around the neighborhood a few times and all was well. One thing that always bothered me is the square LCD panel at the bottom-right of the cluster was functional, but partially melted, not sure how that happened.
Fast forward a few weeks ago, since Carmo didn't want to return more than one email to me, I took it upon myself to try to fix the LCD issue by purchasing a good, used cluster from an eBay dismantler. I took both clusters apart to do the LCD swap and that's when things went strange.
Upon originally powering up my "frankenstein cluster", the bike was running fine and I thought all was well. About 3 minutes later, SERVICE appears at the bottom of the LCD and the engine dies. The ECU is reporting code P0351 - coil left, too high / P0352 - coil right, too high. I hooked up an inline spark tester and I am getting spark when the engine is turning over. The fuel injectors are firing, but the bike simply won't run. Both coils are connected and clearly work fine so I don't think they're actually bad.
I purchased a brand new, never installed Breva cluster which arrived today. Plugged it into the bike, get a prompt in Italian to "remember to enter your code", but then it goes away. If I change the position of the Trip 1/Trip 2/Mode selector switch, changes happen very slowly or not at all. If I leave the switch in MODE, I'm not able to access anything other than Chrono, I can't access the menu options.
I have both the customer code if needed. I also have 2 original Guzzi keys which previously worked fine with the original cluster. I have a brand new battery installed, verified the main ground by the starter motor is clean and tight. Battery connections are 100% clean and tight as well.
I'm at an absolute loss here and really could use some help. If I can't get this bike running again, I'm going to have to part it out.
