did yours give any response, click etc. when it didn't work? mine is nothing like you were pushing with the key off. strange it appears it's the same switch as the 2015 that has been no trouble.

hello vagrant , thanks for your response , very much appreciated . I had flashing lights when it first happened last year , the bike would cut out then suddenly kick back into life , cut out again then kick back in and then run fine . After this I had the bike checked over by the dealer and was told one of the sensors needed re - setting ,programming , whatever it is . Bike then ran good until recently this year . Out on ride one day and suddenly without any warning lights coming on , bike just goes dead , completely cuts out . I roll to a stop , turn the ignition off and then on again , usual flashing lights come on , I fire up and she runs ok for rest of journey . Again I take it in for a service , they detect front speed sensor fault too long duration pressure , clear fault codes which were in the system as past codes , checked all wiring and connections , nothing loose . No recalls or bulletins . No fault codes in the ECU . Valve clearance done , test ride and running good . Two days later I am out riding and the bike suddenly goes dead AGAIN !! Same as before , no flashing lights , just cuts out then fires up again . NO , I AM NOT ACCIDENTLY HITTING THE KILL SWITCH . It's a brand new bike , near enough , and I should not really be experiencing this crap . It's also pretty scary when I am on the motorway or main road riding at speed with traffic behind me ! Hoping I could fix it myself as I could be waiting ages if the dealer takes it back in . Thanks , Stu .so did you have flashing lights?
my first guess is a bad ignition switch or the connecting wires.
thanks vagrant , I will try those things . CheersAgain i would reach down and fiddle with the key while ridding down the road. if you can safely reach the wiring harness do the same and also tap the housing the kill switch sits in.
I could be mistaken but I think I remember somebody having a solder connection fail on the back of another V7 switch. try googling it here.
Other than that I'm lost. do you have a lemon law there?
thanks kiwi dave , checking all fuses and connections this weekend . cheers , much appreciated .If everything is dying, then I would suspect the 30A fuse (F6). Bad connection in the holder or intermittent fuse. Worth replacing as an elimination check.
Yes, it has been well covered here. The wires have likely come unsoldered. The Alarm showed because you removed the key.Hey everyone, came across this today. My guzzi was idling to warm up and the check engine light came on. When I went to turn the bike off with the key the bike continued to run after the key was removed from the bike. In the Speedo it stated "Alarm Ga service" then the bike would shit off. I played with the ignition a few times and when the check eng light went out finally the bike would start and shut off normally. No other problems with the bike? Do I have a bad ignition?
It might, especially if you removed the key. About all I can post on here without seeing the bike. Thread merged, start with the first post here.hey Todd. will this cause the engine light? a lot of the guys here are saying it just causes the bike not to start? looking though the tech manual there is no "code" for the ignition switch? would it be like a lost of power code?
I will try another battery. Thank you. Will report bak soon.See; https://guzzitech.com/forums/threads/v7-iii-starter-switch-fail-power-loss.19923/ - that or you have a short or it's time to replace the battery based on the voltage you state.
