Gear position sensor?

 

 

If fuses are good you may have a bad relay. Don't know much about horns, but if your horn required an additional relay to isolate it from the bikes electronics...that isn't good. How much current does it draw?

 

The stock horn doesn't use a relay. The wiring feed is through the brake light circuit using that fuse. There's no connection to the gear position switch either, so may be you have inadvertently disturbed some connectors under the tank which is causing the power loss.

 

Correct - stock horn doesn't have a relay and I didn't add one.

The dash has a "check" signal on. I don't have a scope or whatever is needed to tell me what that check means. I was hoping it'd tell me a check code w/o the scope but it doesn't appear to.

 

If the display says "CHEC", then it means it sees a problem. If you put the bike in "Dealer Mode", it should indicate a -Cxx code.
the "xx" are a number, then you have to research in Factory Manual, or on-line what that Susuki code is.

To put it Dealer Mode, you jumper a couple of pins in six-connector plug under the seat. Jumper the outer 2 RH vertical pins. They sell a switch for this, but a jumper clip would do.

 

ohh... sounds good - I'll give that a try!

 

If all you did was add a horn, its seems to me something may be shorted. Is it possible any wire got pinched somewhere and is shorting to ground?

 

Yeah something must've been disturbed unintentionally under the tank somewhere. You can get a service manual online, or a member here could send one to you. It is all PDF, no physical book that I could find, which is a bummer for me. I have one I could send if you need it.

 

 

Is this the correct 6 pin plug? If so, did I jump it correctly? I don't seam to be in dealer mode b/c I don't see a code - see dash. Any insights or tips?

 

BTW - if my horn is on the brake circuit, I don't see a fuse for brakes... maybe it's in w another circuit. I checked all the fuses and any insight fuses that I could find but I'm wondering if there's an inline fuse under the gas tank or somewhere?

 

That is where mine is located on the '23. I am unsure on what pin numbers you need though. Your year might be different.

 

Ah I figured it out... it was a fuse - doh! I had checked them all and was going through and swapping them out but must have missed that one. I tried again and everything is back to working again. Thx for your help tracking this down.

 

good! Take a ride.
