GSXR Diagnostic Codes Troublshoot Tips
Posted: Fri Dec 19, 2008 11:18 am
The diagnostic plug is on the left hand side of the bike at the back. You may have to remove the left hand side rear fairing to get to it the first time. It can be relocated inside the trunk area for easy access. The White / Red trace and the Black / White trace are the wires that need to be jumped. You can use a paper clip inserted into the plug to jump the White / Red trace to Black / White trace together. This will put the ECU into diagnostic mode and trouble codes will be shown on the LCD spedo display. Use the list below to find your code and what the code indicates may be the problem.
