FI Light

Anyone know why the FI light comes on when I start my bike? (2011 ZX-10R)
I turn it off and usually after 2-3 turn off/on sequences it goes away.
Also, when I start it, it revs up a bit and sounds like it idles a little higher than it use to. I haven't changed anything on it and it just started doing this Saturday.
Anyone have any idea what it could be?

Sounds like some type of sensor...but I'm just guessing. :HeadScratch:

GSXR has a port you can jumper to get diag codes

I bet Kawasaki has something similar

Just depending on the weather mine revs higher in the cold when I first start it up

Maybe it's the cold with mine too, which makes sense. That covers the higher rev, I have the repairs manual at home. I will look to see if there is a list of codes that it could be or just reasons why it would come on.

From the ZX-10r.net forums, next time the light is on do the following to get the error code.

Self-Diagnosis
•Push the upper button [A] to display the odometer .

•Push the upper button [A] for more than two seconds.
•The service code [C] is displayed on the LCD by the number of two digits. (The service code of the KIBS and ABS adds “b" at the left side of the code.)

Just a bet, you have a control valve or solenoid sticking. No idea which one.

Battery is bad, jumped it to get started and got pulled over before I could get enough charge back on the battery to restart it.

Don't mind Terry; He is just upset that his bike's FI light never comes on, but that's only because it fell off many moons ago!

My bike doesn't need a FLight light, I always know when it's leaving terra firma.

Maybe check all electrical connections? Electrical grease?

Yeah. Def electrical. But where and why is the question.

I have bought back several vehicles for a loose terminal or a pinched/cut wire. Granted I'm sure the bike is easier, but they are not fun or easy to hunt down.

just sayin, unless it's in your face simple I don't touch electronics, could spend a month hunting down 1 wire.

Then another month hunting down what you screwed up hunting down one wire.

Then you take it to the shop and they have it another month.
