... That's me!
Been a long time since I looked and posted here - sorry about that
2 days ago when I started the bike to go to work the following occurred:
Turned the key and immediately dash showed that temperature was maximum and it said "53" where the mileage is usually shown. The red light immobilizer lamp was flashing. Was of course not able to start.
Turned the key 2 times more and same happened. 4th attempt gave no errors and I was able to start my bike. Went to work. No issue then I had to go home. Yesterday same thing happened when I had to start at the morning. This time I only had to give it one more go before problem was gone. Today I had no issues in the morning?
A little search/google/youtube tells me that this could be the immobilizer itself or wires to it (maybe cable loom just under the key/immobilizer). One youtube video clearly showed a yellow wire in the cable loom that was broken and caused this exact error.
If I have a bad connection somewhere... Will I only experience problems when starting the bike or could I experience a cutoff during riding?
3 days ago, before I first experienced this, I rode through the worst rain ever. Was about 90 minutes of heavy rain on the highway so lots of splashes from cars. Next 90 minutes was mostly dry so I was almost. Perhaps the key insert (and immobilizer?) got moist?
I guess I need new boots cause the old Puma's have a small crack in the side of the sole so I got one wet sock. Unfortunately my pants couldn't quite cope with the 90 minute rain puddle between my inner thighs so I I erhmm... well my sack got wet
EDIT: When trying to start with error "53" the engine turned but didn't fire up.
