Out of the blue my 08 won't start. FI light flashes as it turns over. Tried to start it 4 or 5 times, it hit once and died. I'm busy looking through the tons of FI threads. Does anyone have a link to the white plug under the seat, I can't remember which 2 wires to jump to get the code...dealer mode. So I can find out what's goin on. Thanks

Heres a mobetta pics as well..
You can also remove the cap from the plug to access the terminals a bit easier.

This is from mine a Gen II

My guess is it will show 'TMW' as the code..



















TOO MANY WHEELIES :rofl:

Tried it. Now the fuel pump won't prime, but the FI is gone from the guauges, and no codes. Must have popped a fuse, I'll go check them.

Make sure the front wheel is on the ground first 'Wheelie King'

I have heard that the fuel pump wont prime if you are in the middle of a nice one...
