Hey Guys,
Alright, like the subject says, I have a 3 fold problem. First, I made a post a couple weeks ago on both the .com and .net sites about having a Check Engine Light that stays on (Links are here if you want to look):
I still have this issue, which is problem 1.
Next, I ordered the TuneECU cable and downloaded the program to my laptop. I installed the D2XX drivers. When I launch the program and plug in the cable, I get a clue light on the cable at the bike end, but I get this message in TuneECU: "ECU is not responding: Check cable connection. Turn ignition off and on."
I have turned the ignition on and off several times. I have tried the connection on every USB port I have and I hear the Windows audio chime that something has been plugged in, but I still get the same message in TuneECU. That is problem 2.
Finally, I took my bike out riding today and everything was great. I got it home and went up into the house for a few minutes (about 5 mins) and came back out and the bike won't start. I turn the ignition and activate the switch and the lights come on and I hear the "whir" of the computer as the gauges sweep. I hit the actual ignition button and I hear a soft "click" in the bike, but that's it - nothing else. I have tried putting the bike in gear and rocking it back and forth to see if the starter is stuck, but no luck. I called the Triumph dealer and they said sometimes they get touchy and to try putting it in neutral, hold in the clutch, press and keep holding the starter button, then wiggle the clutch and see if it fires. No luck there either. Oh, and the bike won't go into First for some reason. Neutral is fine and second is fine. So that is problem 3.
I assume the first step is getting TuneECU working as that might help with the rest.
Thanks ahead of time for any suggestions. Please help!
