I didnt realise you could do that??? so i just connect the brown yellow to an earth point then? such as the indicator earth which would be nearest

c20xe or 20xe,

on my 20xe i have to earth out two wires to flash it :p

Andy
11-05-10, 09:21 PM
20Xe gear in a Let block lol I have 2 wires leftover from fitting which are brown with yellow trace-which should earth out to flash codes,and the red/blue speed sensor (iirc) wire which isnt needed
What colour wires do you use?

General Baxter
11-05-10, 09:24 PM
i would go and tell you, but i have not even wired up the ecu light, so i cant test it,

its all got to be done this weekend lol

Andy
11-05-10, 09:44 PM

General Baxter
11-05-10, 09:45 PM
does it do it all the time or just when cold ?

Andy
11-05-10, 09:48 PM
Well last night it was doing it all my way home (35miles)
But sunday,just when cold.Then filled up and it stopped but by that point it was up to temp
Seems to fart more at low revs then picks up better but not full power

General Baxter
11-05-10, 09:50 PM

theres only
AFM,
WATER TEMP,
HALL,
CRANK,
