I've got the cycle back today, but have not yet checked the codes. I'm bushed...gv550 said:No joy...... :'(
On a ride today and the cruise worked perfectly for 230kms then quit, same flashing light and code 90.
I restarted and it quit twice again in the next 150 kms. The first time it quit I was riding through a town with numerous stops and just happened to look down and saw it flashing. The second time I saw it begin flashing as I pulled the front brake, and the third time it began flashing on its own without touching either brake.
I'm beginning to think this is a software issue, considering all the work and parts that Sigeye has thrown at his bike. There is what? 5 of us right now with the same problem, Sigeye, Bigbob, Eville Rich, Mebgardner and myself. I've been here only a year but the Gen 2 has been around 4 years so why are there 5 of us now and none before this?
Based on this report, I intend to have a very careful look at the dual switches in the brake lever housing. With a good ol' Simpson type ohmmeter (relatively low ohms / volt, great for switch contacts), and a bit of patience to see if one or both are intermittent. I'm pretty certain that my woes are in there, somewhere.
My .02: I would not have shot any "contact cleaner" in there, just cause there was an access hole. I know you mean well, but I (me) would not have done it. I have a radar tech license from the FCC type skill level. I'm authorized to repair TV station level equipment, and airport radar sets. Your CB?, childs play to me. I mention this humbly so you can gauge my skill level of what I'm saying, that's all.
