Fail code?

[craigs449]

My 2008 510 SMR just quit on me at the track a week ago. Checked all the normal stuff. Not getting any spark, and no electricity to the fule pump. Neutral light flashes 4 times. Fuel pump works fine when hooked up directly to 12 volts. Took the bike to a Husky shop and they hooked it up to Ibeat and said there were no old or current fail codes???????? Anybody have any ideas?

Already checked the relays under the tank, and swapped the kill switch for a new one from a TE 450 today to no avail. Gonna check the clutch safety switch next. Anybody tell me how to defeat that switch? Just jump one side to the other?

Just jump the 2 wires,the switch only inhibits the starter nothing else.Do you still have a lean angle sensor plugged in?We have had trouble with fuses replace all of them even if look good,had wires break inside on one fuel pump fuse holder just about 1 inch from the holder was hard to find.Are you still running the ignition switch?Have also had a few break wires at the main harness bend by steering head had to strip housiing off then pull each wire at the bend sometimes one just keeps on stretching .Have had alot of igntion switches come loose at the plug.Also pull stator cover and look in thre for loose bolts etc.billf

Will do the clutch safety switch tomorrow, but the starter turns the motor over just fine............Yes for the lean angle switch under the seat, swapped a buddies SMR 450 tilt switch sensor at the track and the bike exhibited the same problems.....will replace all the fuses hopefully tomorrow (all look good, but better safe than sorry!)..........which one is the fuel pump fuse holder (one of the big ones on the starter relay?)....Yes, still running the ignition switch.......is there an easy check for the broken wires at the main harness without stripping the actual wire insulation? can I use a bs light bulb style current tester for this?..........you have had the ignition switches come loose at which end?, the underside of the keyed ignition module, or the plug harness end?.......stator is a check that is on my list, just didn;t think that these symptoms had really anything to do with the stator (fuel pump gets its power for startup from somewher else right?)..... I was told I can lean the bike all the way over on its side to pull stator cover off without causing additional issues, is that true?

Thanks for all the help...

wound up being a broken fuse like in this guys thread.

Must be crappy fuses from Husky. Should have checked them with a MM in the 1st place

Where exactly is the lean sensor?

My '10 TE250 just received a new fuel pump for an intermittant pump failure issue.

Exactly which fuse services the fuel pump?

thanks

I don't think the TE's have the tip sensor. If you do, it should be to the right and rear of the airbox when you pull the seat. It will be a little black boxx w/ 3 wires coming out of it and it is marked "up" or "top"...there are three fuses on the bracket with it, a 20 amp, and 2 15 amp's.....the 15 amp closest to the rear of the bike was the culprit on mine. I would suggest zipties to secure that whole bracket to the subframe (mine was jiggling and probably was the cause of the broken fuse) and replacing the oem fuses with ones from autozone or another parts store.

Will do.

rest assured- ONLY SM'S have tip sensors/ or fall sensors.... TE's have a resister type plug in place of the sensor in the place described above. If you disconnect it- you will get a fail code and you will loose spark and fuel power. If I recall it has 3 wires going to it orange, green black, and black. it disables very simularily as having one or both of the 15 amp minifuses go bad/burnt out/ or loose connection.

Could that resistor fail intermitantly causing my fuel pump to die for a spell?

not as far as i know. the te resistor just tells the ecu that the bike is upright regardless of the position of the sensor, kinda like an override. Sounds like you need to do the fule pump fix....done it yet?
