  • TB 500 EFI problem(I think). Please Help

    Hi all,

    I have a TB 500(Aug 2016) with a 20000KM+ on ODO. Recently(1 week) I am facing a problem which I haven't encountered before & thought about sharing with you to find any solution before I go to service center. I use my motorcycle mostly for office runs & occasionally long runs.
    The problem is- "Check engine light" comes up frequently during the ride & the motorcycle would then stop dead. This thing happens whenever the motorcycle is stopping(Signals, traffic jams etc). Although the nature of this problem is erratic but it's there. Some times the problem starts right after I start my motorcycle at the beginning of the day or will come afterwards. It's driving me crazy.
    I have just serviced my motorcycle on December & that time this problem was not there.
    Kindly help.

    Regards,

    Ritabroto

      Do check your battery terminals. It could be that it is loose. Also was there any change in idling after service, may be they set the idle rpm too low. If there was some electrical related work done during service, please see if reversing that will resolve your problem.
