eastanglianbiker Posted March 13, 2013 Posted March 13, 2013 but they wouldnt need to set the valve timing unless its had the clinder head off of it or have they put their engine in the frame before dumping it,cant see any reason they would need to reset valve timing and they would not of put all the cam cover back on and done it all up correctly before leaving the bike to be found Quote
Zod Posted March 19, 2013 Author Posted March 19, 2013 I've thought that. If they were to ride around on the bike then they wouldn't need to reset the valve timings nor would they need to remove the spark plug either...I don't know how it could be running fine one minute before the bike was nicked and not run when I get it back, the thieves were of course riding around on it which is obvious enough. The only thing they had done though was swap the battery over for a dead one and take out the spark plug, now I've spoken with the head mechanic down at M&P's in Swansea who says that he can't think of any reason why they would've removed the spark plug in the first place even if they had another bike of the same make and model. I have checked the tip sensor on it also and it's not that. I have disconnected the cut off switch at the side stand and completed the circuit without the cut off switch connected, and still it will not start. I have tried everything I can think of to try and get it going and yet still I get no result, all it does is keep giving me a fault code which is always the same one. 19 Which basically tells me that there is a fault somewhere between the ign switch and the ECU along the black & white wire, which is incorrect because I've tested it and checked it and there is nothing wrong with it. Apparently there is another ECU in the alternator. I haven't yet had a look at that though I might do now over the weekend. Quote
acting_strange Posted March 20, 2013 Posted March 20, 2013 Bypass the ignition circuit...take a wire directly from the battery to the feed on the ecu....if you have a spark then you need to check it is at the right time.Check the earthing....its the biggest cause of all electrical problems... Quote

Yeah....hot wire it.....or take it down your local Chav centre and leave it for them to do it for you..... Quote

As EAB has already noted, that's what happened before and now it wont start Also I have checked the earthing and the earthing's fine so will try bypassing the ign circuit now tomorrow and see if that helps ^^ Quote
Guest Posted December 7, 2013 Posted December 7, 2013 HI I was just wondering if you got the problem solved as my dads having the same problem and reading fault code 19 and everything I google I end up back here ha.. Quote
