FI SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS 5-21
FAIL-SAFE FUNCTION
FI system is provided with fail-safe function to allow the engine to start and the motorcycle to run in a mini-
mum performance necessary even under malfunction condition.
The engine can start and can run even if the above signal is not received from each sensor. But, the engine
running condition is not complete, providing only emergency help (by fail-safe circuit). In this case, it is nec-
essary to bring the motorcycle to the workshop for complete repair.
When two ignition signals or two injector signals are not received by ECM, the fail-safe circuit can not work
and ignition or injection is stopped.
