Just need to know, is the only way to reset the TPS on my 06 Uly, is to either take it into a HD shop, or use ECM Spy?? If true, does anyone in the Minneapolis area have ECM Spy handy that would let me drive over and reset it? I'll bring the beer! Thanks. | ||

Yep, that's the only way. | ||

I believe IDS (IDSPD) sells a diagnostic tool (code reader), that can also be used to do TPS resets. I don't have one, but would like to hear if anyone has used this tool. | ||

That would be good to know. Thanks Arry and Tootal! | ||

I used the tool that EBR used to have...something-lite? If it's the same thing, it was easy to use. 3 LEDs, plug into diag port and follow shop manual procedure. CRM-lite maybe? | ||

Does nobody use buelltooth and ecmdroid? Ive got a couple, one looks a bit crude, hand made covered in heat shrink and the other is contained in a molded case but they both work fine for tps resets, diagnostics and lite data logging. | ||

http://idspd.com/xcart/cmi-lite.html?category_id=4 3 http://www.idspd.com/xcart/Support-files/200124_B. pdf Quick rundown of it's use to set the TPS. Yes this tool works quite well, I have one. I also use the programmable ecm and it's software, the CMI-lite tool is VERY easy to use. For all EFI-equipped Buell™ motorcycles prior to model year 2008, the adjustable idle screw must be backed out such that the throttle plate fully closes in the throttle bore. This must be done before using the following procedure. For model year 2008 and later, the idle screw is factory adjusted and should not be changed. a. Begin with the ignition key OFF, run/stop switch in RUN position, and throttle CLOSED. b. Turn the ignition key ON. All three LEDs will blink once, and then the red LED will blink continuously. The green and yellow LEDs will indicate the idle setscrew position (see 3. Checking and adjusting the Idle Setscrew Position). Note: The yellow light should blink continuously, indicating that the throttle position is too low (since the throttle plate has been fully closed at the start of this procedure). It may indicate otherwise if the TPS zero position is off significantly. c. After at least one second, hold the throttle fully OPEN for one second. The green LED will blink once. The red LED will continue blinking. d. Release the throttle and allow it to fully CLOSE. The yellow LED will blink once. The red LED will continue blinking. e. After at least one second, hold the throttle fully OPEN for one second. The green LED will blink once. The red LED will continue blinking. f. Release the throttle and allow it to fully CLOSE. The yellow LED will blink twice. The red LED will continue blinking. g. After at least one second, hold the throttle fully OPEN for one second. The green LED will blink once. The red LED will continue blinking. h. Release the throttle and allow it to fully CLOSE. The red LED will turn on continuously, and the yellow LED will blink three times. Then, the green LED will turn on for three seconds, indicating that the zero position has been set (see *NOTE below). Then, the red and yellow LEDs will flash continuously. i. Turn in the throttle setscrew until the green LED turns on, indicating a factory default idle position. j. Turn off the ignition. All LEDs will turn off. *NOTE: If the yellow LED turns on and stays on during step h, turn the ignition key OFF, fully CLOSE the throttle plates, and retry the procedure. This can happen if: - The engine is cranked or started - Communication problems prevent the TPS from being reset - The throttle is not fully closed in step h | ||

That would be a good post it note. | ||

Two things to note about TPS resets. True for all years of XB. 1. Engine must be warmed up. 2. Throttle plate must be clean. Notably the edges where the plate touches the throttle bore. Carbon build up will make a reset inaccurate as the throttle cannot reach true zero, and it can make it stick. |
