I went out to the bike today to fit my brake light modulator and noticed that my GiPro had started flashing F once it had counted up to 6, and it seemed very slow counting up. I tried a few restarts but it kept going to F. I then attempted a reset and hallway through it kept sticking on 2 for an age. Eventually after about 30 minutes I managed to do the reset and now it counts down from 6 to 1 but then flashes F again. I have tried to reprogram it but it remains on F. I have removed it from the diag socket and left it for 10 minutes but it is still the same, and I also tried a Honda ECU reset but the problem remains. Anyone got any clues? I know that F is supposed to mean it can't talk to the ECU but fook knows why that would suddenly happen. I've emailed Healtech so if we can't fix it they might and I'll post the answer here.
Have walked away from it for now and left the fairing left off, thanks for the offer though. Depending on what healtech say I may take you up on your offer.
First a big thanks to Mike @BikersDiscountStore. I spent a couple of days emailing Heal-Tech who eventually said to sort a warranty swap out. I rang Mike, who I bought it from 23 months ago, posted it back on thursday and got the replacement today (saturday). Sadly that was the good news. Tested the replacement today and after initial hopeful signs it failed again Looks like a problem on the bike and so far I haven't been able to track it down. Removed and reconnected both ECU plugs, traced the loom as best I can but it looks ok, and did a diag check to test for errors but nothing showed. Bit stuffed as to what to try next
Do you have to set up the GiPro to sync with the engine revs as I've removed my Accumen to be moved to the track bike. You could try it before I fit it as it connects to the clocks and would confirm that rpm signal is getting through. Simon and I are also at Cadwell next Monday if you wanna test it. Edit: Just checked the wiring diagram and it seems that all 4 wires connect to the ECU, one of which is probably an earth. n.b. I have a slightly higher res jpg if you need it.
Cheers Gary. Used the diagram from my Haynes Manual but from what I can figure out the earth is OK. I did a diagnostic check/reset which uses the green and brown wires, and my interpretation says the green is the earth. Also as the indicator is powering up I can only guess the earth is ok. The rev counter is fine, no FI warning, no other warning lights and so I am confused.com at the moment Best guess I have so far for the wires so far based solely on the colours in the Haynes manual are: Green - Grey ECU Pin 1 -> Grey ECU Pin 2 -> Earth Brown - Grey ECU Pin 19 -> ??? Only other cable same colour goes from the Fuel Pump to the Fuel cut off relay Brown/Yellow- Black ECU Pin 30 -> Black ECU Pin 21 -> Fuel Cut off relay Black/White - Loads of bits that would/should show a FI error if busted i.e PAIR control valve, Oxygen Sensor, Air intake control valve, Primary & Secondary Ignition Coils/Plugs, primary & secondary injectors. Also goes to Black ECU Pins 4&5 Will have a look through the Service Manual but after that I'm not sure what to try next. May be a case of leave it off the bike, put the bike back together, and revisit it over the winter. PS Mr Honda putting the fuses, relays and diag socket behind the fairings was a fooking daft idea.
Have you measured the continuity between those connections as my diagram is slightly different. It shows the 4 wires going to ECU grey connector pin 32, 4, 16 and ECU black connector pin 32. If there is a way to get my key working on your bike then you could try my ECU
If I get the chance I'll be checking the continuity later. I've also emailed Heal Tech to see if they will tell me what they expect on each pin. I think it's possible to fool the hiss by putting one key next to the sensor and using another in the barrel. Possibly something to try at a later date as I know you are off on track tomorrow. Checking the Haynes manual it looks like your diagram is for an 04/05 which explains the differences.
I noticed it after fitting the brake modulator. I don't think it is connected though as the modulator only uses the rear brake pos and neg feeds. I did check other things near the diag socket though, such as disconnecting the HID ballast and reconnecting the PAIR bits even though it had all worked fine for months beforehand.
Just found another diagram on PC while looking for something else. Looks like the same wiring for the diagnostic plug as the last one though.
Going to replace it with one that uses the wire off the dashboard instead. Waiting on a price from Andy @ DT, which remonds me I need to give him a bell as he doesn't seem to have read the post yet.
You planning on getting them to swap it then? The one I use is the Acumen DG8. It plugs inline with the clocks connector. You may have seen that I fitted mine to the track bike a couple of days ago. I found a broken wire in the bikes loom plug too while down there. Will be interesting to see if the clocks hold their trip and time memory now
Will sell the GiPro to fund the new one, as it's virtually brand new. Pretty sure Acumen aren't made any more, think they got bought out by another company.
