Second, it sounds like your TPS is adjusted fine. I checked my bike today and it reads .77V cold. If you go to the Tests page and run the "adjust throttle cables" test, it will fully retract the idle stepper motors. Then go back to the Diagnostics page without switching off the bike and read your TPS voltage. It will now be the same as when the engine is fully warm, i.e., idle steppers retracted. Mine read .65V.

Hope that helps.

I'm not able to choose the " adjust throttle cable" test while connected to the bike???

I have the same issue. I can not run any of the tests.

Yesterday I had an epiphany, it seems that every time I connect the bike while the engine is off the readings are right, it is after the bike is warm that it portrays the issues, I also noted that the voltage of the battery after a long ride is still 12 volts, it does not increase. So i thought, ok so what if the TPS (hardware) is fine, what would be a factor that would send the wrong signal to the bike? Current! if the current is not regulated adequately the TPS will not receive the right amount and hence it will transmit a wrong signal. So i went ahead and checked the regulator output. With the bike on, as I accelerate the output of the regulator decreases! Is this right? So again, I thought of the last sympton, as I was riding at 100km/h the bike started to accelerate an decelerate by itself and then the FI light turned on. I read the code and it said it is code p0122 which says that the TPS Voltage is low. I took down the regulator today and I am going to take it to be tested. I will have u posted with the outcome.

All you have to do is turn the ignition off will TuneECU hooked up to the motorcycle and then adjust your cables at that point. With TuneECU hooked up it will keep the stepper motor retracted. This is directly from the Description pdf

Quote:

Adjusting the throttle cable : The idle speed control stepper motor will be completely retracted and the throttle valves completely closed. Switch the ignition switch off, WITHOUT exiting or disconnecting the software and adjust the throttle cable clearance.

Make sure you double click...

And make sure you have the most current version of TuneECU.

Oli990 · 05-11-2011, 11:17 PM

I have the latest version of TuneECU but I'm not able to select the test. It's colored grey and the wanes that I can select are black. I tried double clicking, also doesn't work.
Just turning off the ignition with TuneECU connected doesn't retract the stepper motor!

That is true! That's why there is a test button for that feature.

If you can't select any of the tests - are you able to connect and see the ECU data in the Map Edit or Diagnostics pages?

Oli990 · 05-12-2011, 11:13 AM

I can select some tests, like the steppermotor and 2de throttle test. I can load maps and use the diagnostics page but I can't select the adjust cable test witch is colored gray. The ones I can select are colored black.

Sapling · 05-12-2011, 02:33 PM

Are you running the latest version?? 1.9?

When you double click on the adjust cable test it will tell you at the very bottom to turn off the ignition and adjust but to not exit out of the software.

I don't know why yours would not be selectable.

Oli990 · 05-13-2011, 11:24 AM

Yes I have the latest version

Gustavo.Ramos · 08-05-2012, 04:30 PM

Anyone knows how did this turned out?

kenhaw · 11-16-2012, 01:16 PM

i have the same problem, I cant choose this test, everything else works fine.
Any solution for this.
Maybe it has to do with only 2006 models?
