My 06 AE has issue when in 5th gear it will not downshift. Shift light comes on and I have to let it bog down until engine dies. Will be fine once I restart until I am in 5th gear. If I never use 5th gear all is fine. Am going to change actuator module and bleed. I have heard air pockets can...

Donal, yes I meant the micro switch. It isn't a relay. I should have checked that first but at least now I know how the whole thing works. Mcatrophy, yes the arm is order-able and one of cheaper parts for my total repair cost.

Ok I figured it out. It was the stupid relay at the top end of the rail that was stuck in the shorted position. I un-jammed it and all works now as expected.

I finally looked at the schematic and the sky blue for the neutral light is actually brown red, so that one I am avoiding but so far grounding the light green or sky blue does nothing. Other issue I am seeing is if I leave the red/black - black/red disconnected it still does the auto retract if...

Ok, looked at mine and I don't have a skyblue/white cable mine is brown red, when I short this to gnd I hear a buzzing but no motor movement. If I grnd the lt green, nothing happens. I can hear a relay when I just connect power to Red and Brown and gnd to black. I notice the motor itself is...

ionbeam, it failed when I tried to move it after an accident not knowing that one of the guide arms was broken. Although it is sitting in the low position and not stuck in the middle and everything looks normal except for the broken arm link piece (3P6-2833P-00-00). I think the real reason the...

Thanx, all, will try it tomorrow. I have lots of current on my PS so it should be a good test. If motor is fried I wonder what good is the fuse except for a short somewhere I guess?

Thanx mcatrophy, I had to remove the cowling anyway for other reasons so now I need to see if I can get the broken arm replaced but before I order it I need to see if I need to replace the whole unit at ~ $500.00 :-( Any idea if just the motor can be replaced?? So to try it I would need +12v...

My windscreen adjustment died, I now have it off the bike and would like to try to connect an external power supply to it just to verify the motor is truly dead. Has anyone done this. I haven't got a chance to look at the schematic yet but I see two switches that are at the end of the arms...

Thanks, all it is off now. Another problem has presented itself. The Windscreen adjuster quit working. More things to trouble shoot. I made the mistake of trying it before I took everything off and it started to work and then stopped. Once I got the cowling off I could see that one of the arms...

Thanks,after taking a break and looking at it again.I now see the 4 screws. Will take another stab it tomorrow.

I'm in a Conundrum, I have the whole front cowling loose but there is one screw that is from the back side right under where the front tuning fork logo is. I can't see how I can get to that philips head screw. It is right below the windscreen adjustment mechanism. If I had some weird screw...

Getting my 06 FJR1300AE back on the road again and last item is the side bag. Have been watching Ebay but mostly only see left ones or very damaged ones.

Has anybody tried these kits on Ebay for complete fairing kits? https://www.ebay.com/itm/Silver-Fairing-Bodywork-Cowl-kit-for-2001-2005-Yamaha-FJR-1300-FJR1300-2002-2003-/221446113545?pt=Motorcycles_Parts_Accessories&hash=item338f378909&vxp=mtr My list of parts is growing and wonder if these...

It is pretty hard kick in. I have an AE that I just crashed a few weeks ago. One thing I found that I don't like about the auto clutch is slow speed turns. Other than that, I love the auto clutch especially in my daily traffic commute and the paddle shift. I crashed mine as I was making a u...

I was very lucky, I went over a 10ft embankment flipped and landed in a creek on my right side. My right side bag got crunched but saved my leg. My only injury was my pride and a cut on my nose from my inner helmet visor. I love my AE but being able to feather the clutch in a slow turn is very...

Thanks, that picture tells it all, trailer time :-( Chris

It is also called the stator cover. Crank case cover sounds like there should be oil involved, but am hoping that is not the case. Chris

I don't think there is any fluid under this cover just the generator coils. Please confirm if anybody knows for sure. I have about 35 miles to get home. I was thinking duct tape also but was hoping somebody knows exactly what is under the cover. It is about a quarter size hole and I can see the...
