Mainly having starting issues with my motorcycle. It won't turn over sometimes (intermittent issue) and displays Fault 19. While cranking battery seems strong.
It also has cut out while riding, but that has only happened twice (on same day, haven't seen that very often). I believe the dash was still functioning after it cut out. I was accelerating hard in first (from stop) and when I was at about 10k rpm it cut out (at first I thought I just hit the rev limiter). Think I was in middle of shifting but can't be certain.
Seems to have these issues when it is colder out (starting) or bike is cold (cutting out).
I first experienced this issue about 6 months ago, but it happened very infrequently. About a week ago it started happening more often.
My riding habits are: bike gets a lot of short commute riding (20-25 minutes). I typically always use the kickstand to kill/park the bike. I bought the bike used with about ~8k miles on it (no idea how much kill switch was used). Currently bike has ~14k miles on it.
I disconnected the ECU and looked at the pins, there was a little bit of corrosion on a few pins, green colored rust, but the pins for the most part looked solid, I cleaned the connections as best I could and used an air duster to try and remove corrosion dust where possible.
I put the bike into diag mode but can't seem to start the bike in diag mode. When I try to start the bike in diag mode it displays ER_1 and wont start. Feel like I can get the error to occur more easily in diag mode ??
Reading up on Error 19 everybody seems to have a different remedy:
Replace ignition switch
Replace starter relay
Bypass or Replace sensors or button (clutch, kickstand, or kill switch)
Replace ECU
I thought it might be the kickstand, so I bypassed the kickstand switch, but seem to still have issues with starting it. So I don't think that is the issue.
Not sure what to try next...
Side Question: Can you guys start your bike with kickstand down but clutch being held ? I cant but some others I believe said they could
