Please would anyone with a similar experience offer me any advice to get this bike back to its reliable self again.
I have replaced the FI relay and ICM under front of tank, (old one no output on pin #eight), and the fuel pump is fine. Replaced temperature relay and fan is fine, but still no start.
Based on heat stress, I replaced the HES, spark plugs and leads and HV coils and tested temp sensor, (both outputs OK), AFM, TPS, ECM and all good per Crazy Frog's troubleshooting guide.
Spark at plugs and fuel injectors all working, although I suspect spark may be varying in intensity.
Engine cranks well and battery good. Tries to fire, but will not start. Sometimes, for no reason, it does start when the starter is held down to continue cranking after the engine fires and then the bike runs up like new - everything works and it rides great. But when it stops and is shut down, will not restart. Other times this procedure will not start the engine.
I also noticed that disconnecting the temp sensor on radiator seems to help to fire a bit more, but still will not start. Have tested sensor and when running, output is per graph in guide and when cold as well, so seems OK.
Does this sound familiar to anyone?
Thanks,
Gerry
