#1025133 jcstarken (User) Fresh Boarder Posts: 3 2008 CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ON BUT BIKE RUNS BETTER 3 Months, 2 Weeks ago   Bought the 08 two months ago. it ran a little rough so I did all the maintenance changed fuel plugs oil and ran some injector cleaner through it.Still had decel pops and seemed to have a flat spot in 3rd and 5th. One day on the way home from a ride the check engine light came on. But when i slowed down no decel pop. Check oil all that everything was good.Started her up and man she is running great flat spots gone more power but check engine light is on. The bike came with Cobra 2-1 and a Cobra commander. It is flashing codes 68 and 24. I have never owned a bike with so much technology on it. Please if you can help that light being on is killing me and I want to ride. Thank you in advance.   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #1025136 Shores (User) Go getchur scooter!

Do as Shores suggested and remove the aftermarket fuel controller like most all with FI bikes have done and reconnect the o2's. The bike will run a lot better than it does now.   Logged     dave   The administrator has disabled public write access. #1025165 ctkog (User) Expert Boarder Posts: 523 Re:2008 CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ON BUT BIKE RUNS BETTER 3 Months, 2 Weeks ago   Shores or Dave, I bought my 08 with about the same setup as the poster. When going back to the 02 sensors connected regarding the cammander do i just snip and cap the wires on it or am i also reintalling a stock controller.. because if so i dont believe i have one from the PO.

Thanks I thought the commander was plug n play. DK, never seen one or want to. You must use the stock one and connect your sensors back.   Logged     The west is the best - Jim Morrison Photo by GreenMachine   The administrator has disabled public write access. #1025168 ctkog (User) Expert Boarder Posts: 523 Re:2008 CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ON BUT BIKE RUNS BETTER 3 Months, 1 Week ago   Shores wrote: ctkog wrote: Shores or Dave, I bought my 08 with about the same setup as the poster.
