So, I go to turn the key and the speedo starts up its boot up process then it starts to flicker on and off and eventually just dies. The Immobiliser light is flashing out of sequence with the screen.
Took all the front fairings off as I thought to myself surely I have a loose connection somewhere. Checked out all ok, nothing odd looking at all. Tried the ignition again this time it all worked as it should started the engine with no problems and was idling perfect for around 5mins.
Power on and off to the ignition a few more times to double check it's all good. Still working fine at this point. Tried it again 10mins later and it was back to the speedo barely powering up. The multi pin plug at the back of the speedo is in perfect condition.
The battery is only a few months old and has been on a optimate maintenance charger ever since new. The fact the bike started up really good at one point also suggests no problem with it. 13.5v and no load drop when turning the key.
Starting to wonder if I have a problem with the ignition switch unit?
I had a new speedo fitted by my local dealer at the tail end of summer last year due to the screen developing the micro cracks in the plastic. Could this be related? Still, I think it's a long shot but still a possibility.
