Apologies for not posting an update sooner: Since my last post, I have been able to use my bike daily to get to work(more on that in a while). I have been in email contact(2 off) with Yamaha asking for technical support and I have to say that they have been helpful. In summary, their advise was...

This bike is a 2012 model-the Service Manual that I have is for 2010(for the first XT1200 that I had). I am assuming that the diagnosis,codes and circuits are the same for theses model years- can anyone confirm this,please? --

Error code 13. BUT the air pressure sensor is ok and the circuit resistances are also ok(checked by a Yamaha Technician)

Hi pilleway, The Technician checked the wiring circuits, and I have followed the service manual diagnostics(see my earlier post). I'm afraid this is something outside "normal" diagnostics, but when I have found the root cause I hope I will understand why it is being difficult to find.

Update: My bike has been investigated by a Tech in my local Yamaha dealer. He has not been able to find the root cause of the fault, but he has spent time explaining to me what he has done, and to be fair, because they couldn't fix it, I was charged for 1 1/2 hors labour instead of the 2...

After the road test I can confirm that the fault is still there! I rode for 3.5 miles and the engine stopped while I was in traffic(no warning lights). It wouldn't start for 3/4 tries but on about the 4th try, the orange warning light came on and it started. I rode home ok with a slightly rough...

Hi Pilleway. I used the engine off switch. Please see the attached screen shot of the procedure.

Once again, thank you all for your helpI have changed the hose and cleared the codes. Stars and idles fine(but it only failed after a ride), so I will take it out this afternoon when I get back from work and will post an update

Thank you. I will change the hose. Out of interest, what is "maf"?

OK. I have an update-I now have one Error Code stored:13(in d:61 the number13 is displayed). From the Service Manual I have code 13=Intake air pressure sensor: open or short circuit detected. In Diagnostics I entered Code No. d:03 and I followed the procedure, and the value changes with the...

Did the split air intake pipe show as an error in Diagnostic mode?

Hi Guys. Thank you for all of the help-much appreciated! I see that if there are more than 1 error code that nothing is displayed and the codes have to be retrieved. I had 6 codes and there didn't seem to be any validity in them because when I went through the diagnostics all seemed to be to...

Hi. My 2012 XT1200 has been having a bit of trouble these last few days-on Friday last week riding home from work the orange waring light came on and there were no other symptoms (engine behaving normal). When I investigated on Saturday morning the orange warning light didn't come on when I...
