But first I'd check the fuel.

- October 14, 2011, 19:45:48 PMYou are going to have to take the seat off, remove the battery hold down (do not disconnect the battery!!!!) and pull the controller up so you can access the connectors. On one end, the smallest of the connectors has no wires in it...you need to ground pin 37 to the battery with a jumper wire, then turn on the ign. switch and count the flashes...for each digit of the code, there will be one blink, followed by a 1 second break, followed by the next digit...like blink......blink blink....(that would be a 12)....then a 3 second interval and the code repeats 3 times, then if there are more it will blink again... like blink blink......blink blink blink blink.....that would be a 24, once you know the code, post it here and I can look it up for you and give you trouble shooting instructions. make sure you give it enough time to go through all the codes, in case there is more than one.
