Im sure several of you visit the ADV site. I gather when somebody refers to "205" it means F'ed up. Which brings me to my Uly. I flipped the key on today when playin with it and for the second time now after it sat untouched for a few days the trip meters cleared to 0, and the clock set itself to 205. She tryin to tell me something?  | ||

Yes. 2 hours and 5 minutes ago your cluster lost power. | ||

205 on ADV is a repeat post. Like this:  | ||

Your not serious are you Froggy? | ||
| Froggy |
Yes I am serious. When the cluster loses power the clock and tripometers reset. What caused the power loss can be a number of things including simply a weak battery, loose battery terminal screws, moving on up things harder to pinpoint like a wire break under the flyscreen or steering neck. | ||

As I recall the clock resets to 1:00 so 2:05 would be one hour 5 minutes... | ||

+1 Teeps, 1 hour, 5 minutes | ||

The better Buells reset to 12:00 in addition to sometimes displaying "COM ERROR" or "SYS VOLT ERR"  | ||

First time it did this I tried to recreate the problem by jumping up and down on the bike,turning left right lock to lock tugging on wires everywhere and anywhere I could and no dice. It sits untouched, in the garage on a battery tender and it resets. Weird I say. I will admit a couple times its reset when I was starting it as it does the first compression stroke which seems to be the killer from what Ive read by some of you. | ||

LOL Froggy, just going off what I know | ||
| Ratman |
Well shit howdy....been reading up in the knowledge section and found a post from the guy I bought it from who had the same things going on. Time to dig in to the splice thang and see if that's it. | ||

The splice in the wiring bundle at the steering neck and also the grounds that are screwed to the steering neck. |
