[QUOTE="jammess, post: 1325030, member: 89387"] So I've been getting acquainted with my 2010 FJR and to tell the truth the FeeJeR is kind of boring. I mean about all there is to do is just ride and enjoy. It reminds me of when I bought my first Mac after a life with Windows and before that DOS. In other words the FJR is to motorcycles as Apple is to computers which is hard to get used to after 44 years with BMW. It seems not much is common knowledge about the FJR ECU probably because there is no need to analyze the FJR engine control unit like there is in the case of an oilhead ECU. That said I am curious about how or if one can look at diagnostic fault code logs on the Yamaha ECU. I have seen references to the "barbaric" jumper but I'm a bit hesitant to commence installation of a jumper on the ECU electrical connector without in depth knowledge of exactly what this jumper does and where the idea originated. I don't know if this jumper works on all FJR generations or if it's even necessary. How does a dealer tech access these fault codes? I've performed most needed preventive maintenance including change all fluids and sync TB's. Don't even have to check valves until 24K miles. Jeez, I've got 22K miles to go! What am I gonna do? Nothing to do but ride. Good thing I still have my '93 R1100RSL or I would go nuts![IMG]https://www.fjrforum.com/forum//public/style_emoticons/default/uhoh.gif[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
