Error code help please

Post by Palmer812 » Sun Aug 18, 2019 9:53 pm


My check engine light came on after washing the bike today. The error code is 69. Can somebody tell me what that is? I found the shop manual pdf on here but it’s too big to download on my iPad and I downloaded the mega view app but I need to access my email for the registration and don’t have email access right now. Thanks.

From page 17-14 of the manual:

"Knock sensor malfunction, wiring open or short"

Service for the knock sensor (removal and check) is on page 17-108. It's located in front of the intake duct where the the air filter is.

Thanks. Must have been too wet from the rain then me washing it. I did the ride for 5 minutes over 25 mph 3 times and it cleared. Thanks again.

Might have gotten water into the gas.

Not saying you did, but never wash your bike with high pressure. Low pressure is fine. Water won't hurt a bike unless forced into seals and sensors.
