| Re: Won't start... Is it me or is your gauge cluster missing? I haven't tried it but I hear that the F4i won't start without them |

| Re: Won't start... I have heard both ways, depending on the weather tonight I'll try to go out to unplug mine and we'll both have a 100% positive answer |

| Re: Won't start... Okay, just unhooked the gauge cluster (both connectons) and it fired right up. I didn't unhook the bang angle sensor (pretty sure that will keep it from firing). So there we have it, proof positive that it will fire without the gauges hooked up |

| Re: Won't start... Thanks for your time....
I borrowed a bank angle sensor from the local dealer and hooked it up... but still no fire.. after I hooked up the sensor I can hear the engine stop relay clicking when turning the key...
I pulled one of the spark plugs out to see if there where any spark... but nothing... |

| Re: Won't start... So far I think the 2 small ones goes in the gauge and the big grey one is for the bank angle sensor, turn lights, Head lights etc.. I found a service manual and that what I understand from the wriring diagram...
I think it must me possible to cheat the engine stop relay... but I dont know how... |

| Re: Won't start... Here is a pic of what the connections to the end of the cluster should go into, they are a square box one white one black, this pic is one off an 06. mine is an 02 and looks the same as these. put this link in your browser to see the pic http://i4.ebayimg.com/05/i/000/93/07/e004_1.JPG |

| Re: Won't start... HI again.. the bike starts.. jahuuu
The problem was the transponder...the thing that sends the signal from the key to the cdi box.. but also the bank angle sensor has to be there, wont run without it. Now I have to figure out how to avoid the bank angle sensor.. |

| Re: Won't start... In the UK the ignition assembly sends a signal to the ECU telling it... "hey I'm the right key for this bike and I'm not being stolen". The ECU is matched to the key and switch I believe. US bikes don't have that feature. |

| Re: Won't start... to jump the bank sensor jump the red/white (the signal wire) to the green(ground) and you should be good to go. |
