Luddite - many thanks for the explanation on how to reduce file sizes - I've come across this problem a few times so this is a big plus for me. I'll give it a go this evening. Also, I think maybe getting the ECU a "clean bill of health" is the way to go - at least it's another box ticked. I'll look into it.

Darren 69 - I didn't think of that.... generate a fault and see if the ECU picks it up and throws up a warning light - clever. (Well - I think so)

Slob - thanks for whereabouts of Avanti.

Probably not so clever if you are going to send your ECU away to be interrogated... and you have introduced a load of spurious faults?

Good point Gary. I'm assuming that the current fault is not something that would show up an error message, if it was then the light would be lit.

If you want to be sure which errors are genuine when interrogating the ECU then you could pick an innocuous one like the cooling fan and you will get a Fan not connected error.

That way any before that then you could be sure were genuine ones.

Are you sure its not one of the safety interlocks,? eg the side stand or clutch interlocks switches are working correctly?
