Hey everyone I have a 2014 Busa and I just rode it yesterday after doing some work to it and noticed the gauges froze at 30mph, 3kish rpm, F, and operating temp. So they worked when I took off down the road and then stopped working.
Here is some background, I tore all the front bodywork off and did an oil change, swapped all lights for LEDs, and put new tires on the bike. I tested the bike with new tires and nothing else reinstalled except the cluster, and everything functioned correctly. I installed the nose and plugged in the light harness and reinstalled the cluster, everything functioned correctly. I installed the rest of the bodywork and buttoned up EVERYTHING else and rode it, everything functioned correctly. Then I lifted the front wheel off the ground and the only stand option I have to do this sits behind the bottom of the forks basically on the caliper mounts, so when I lift the front I remove the abs sensor just in case. I cleaned the front wheel, dropped it down and forgot to reinstall the abs sensor. I started riding down the road and that’s when I noticed my gauges were frozen.
So my instant thought is poop, I forgot to plug that sensor back in so it basically threw the bike in limp mode or something. So I go home shut it off and reinstall the sensor. I turn the key expecting to see the gauges sweep and reset but they don’t. They stayed frozen even when turned off. I tried unhooking the battery with no success. I unhooked both battery terminals and then touched the terminals together per my dealerships instruction and that did nothing. They said I must have an abs code throwing everything off so I have to bring it to them and have it cleared.
I bring it to them this morning, and they said there are no codes in the history and we tested everything and the bike runs and operates exactly as it should but the gauges just don’t work. The tech asked me to just leave the bike and said he would contact Suzuki and get back to me.
Now to clarify, EVERYTHING on the bike works correctly. The gauges even light up, and show N, and abs light until you get up to like 7 or 9mph or whatever, but the needles just do not move. All exterior lighting functions and abs functions as well.
The tech is stumped and so am I. But I have to believe that SOMEONE else has encountered this issue before. Do any of you guys have any ideas what could be causing this?
