Ok I'll look it over. If no problem with grounds, what's the next likely culprit?

 

[user_deleted]

jacking thread as well.....O2 sensor on fiero does NOT interchange with sensor on my SuperBird. wait....where's sensor on SuperBird?

 

[Zeroflat24]

its probably right behind the turn signal fluid bottle ^

 

[buellbradski]

right infront of the conipler bearing i think

 

[Zeroflat24]

so i pulled the seat off and the fan shroud from the comfort kit was resting on the fan. i relocated it but i still dont hear the fan running. fuse looks good....

 

[anrkizm95]

might have burned the motor out

 

[uly luigi]

Should popped the fuse first, but, yeh could've burnt it

 

[uly luigi]

seems like I read at one time most folks didn't use the shroud, might be why

 

[Zeroflat24]

well that would suck a huge fatty. really hope it didnt burn out.

 

[Zeroflat24]

this maybe a dumb question, how harmful is it to ride without a cooling fan? is there a back up sensor? or will it just overheat and grenade?

 

[anrkizm95]

not a good idea

 

[uly luigi]

Yeh, not a good idea, best case scenario you just burn up your oil everytime you ride any distance, we have a spark skip mode built into the ECM, but if you are that hot, your oil is toasted

 

[anrkizm95]

disconnect the fan and hook it up directly to the battery and see if it spins

 

[Zeroflat24]

yeah im gonna hard wire it when i get home and see if it runs. i only ride 2 miles to work and back, and usually the cooling fan doesnt even kick on by the time i get to work.

 

[buellbradski]

mine rarley ever run now that i have a right side scoop only when i sit in traffic is you light on still?

 

[Zeroflat24]

the lights still on, but i freed the fan up on my lunch, but like i said i only ride 2 miles to work. i dont know if its like a car where you have to drive it a bit for it to shut off

 

[anrkizm95]

dont perform all 50 a once it may cause fouled plugs and/or a dead battery

 

[Stevenc150]

Wouldn't the easiest way to clear codes be to unhook the negative off the battery for a day or so? Surely by then the residual memory would have cleared. Just an idea worth trying before having to do the 50 start/run cycles.

 

[Zeroflat24]

yeah 50 starts is insane. i almost wish the bike was OBD2 so i could just hook the scanner up to it and clear it. ill try unhooking the battery. thats usually a sure fire way to clear a code!

 

[Stevenc150]

Keep in mind, burning the wrong firmware to these ECMs can brick them, not sure whether a scanner would or not - use caution.

Edit: I might have missed it, but I shouldv'e asked earlier, what year is your bike?
