Hi I have just got a 2009 1125cr and when i turn the bike on there is no odo, and the mode button doesn't work. in the clock location is a countdown from 30 min
After the 30 minute countdown odo shows up and the mode button works?
But when you turn the bike off, then back on the 30min timer starts again with no ogo and mode button not working?

Any help is greatly appreciated
The cluster seems to work fine, just can not see mileage or use mode button?
 
To my limited knowledge I believe it is acting like you installed a new cluster so the odo in the dash is synching with the odo number in the ECM, unlike the XB line that simply holds the odo totals in the cluster on a 'count-up' chip.

But it should happen one time? In your position, I would check the fuses to make sure the ECM or dash isn't losing battery power on shut down. After that, I dunno?

This is a feature unique to the 1125 models. The ECM identifies a "new" instrument cluster installed....transfers its pertinent info to said cluster....starts the 30 minute clock countdown feature to signify said transfer is taking place, then completed. You have either a failing ECM circuit....failing cluster assembly/circuitry....or both.
 
Yes that is my problem, i am thinking it might not be getting the power to support gauge after switch is off. It has a IDS Barker ecm and when milage does show up it reads 621503 odo ? Wtf lol is it missing a decimal? Buddy i got it from said it had just over 15000 kms :( someone or something is going on?
 
Well just did another test, took battery out and charged over night, put battery back in and turned the ignition on and the 30 minute countdown started, this time when the 30 minutes was up the odometer reading was 999999 wtf lol
So i shut it off and back on again and the 30 minute countdown started again:(
It can not be the power for the memory as when it starts its countdown from 30 minutes and you shut off, it starts the countdown where it left off? I think it maybe the gauges
Anyone have a good source for replacement gauges? I dont need new ones
 
There should be a constant power (for memory) AND an ignition power supply (to turn it on) to that cluster.

What we are telling you is to check the constant power supply circuit to the cluster.

If that circuit is not working, it thinks you have unplugged the cluster (or the battery) and replaced it, hence the countdown.
 
Yes i understand that, but if it didn't have a constant power for memory would the countdown resume where it left off before i turned it off?
So if it is counting down from 30 minutes and i shut the ignition off at 27:45minutes if it didn't have constant power it should start back at 30 minutes, where the cluster resumes the countdown when turned back on at 27:45 minutes?
 
AGAIN: This has NO relevance to "power" or loss thereof. If that were the case on 1125 models, then with every battery disconnect or replacement, the gauge cluster clock would revert to countdown-mode.....which it does not.

What I stated above. One more time.

The ECM identifies a "new" instrument cluster installed....transfers its pertinent info to said cluster....starts the 30 minute clock countdown feature to signify said transfer is taking place, then completed.

'Hey Doc, why does my head hurt?'

It could be a tumor:concern:

'I keep banging it against a wall.'

Oh. Then just stop doing that.:upset:




"Your answer can only be as good as your question"

-FFS:stupid:
 
Yes I understand what you said :up:
I was just hopping for a better answer than replacing parts :mad-new:
Thanks for everyone's help, I will let you know what ends up happening
