Could there be blown fuse that controls the injection system ? I have never touched "R" fuel injected model but just throwing the thought out there.
Neil , From what I am reading in the Factory Service Manual , there is no "fuse" that i can find , the closest thing i can find is a Failsafe setup that says
The PGM-FI system is provided with a fail safe function to secure a minimum running capability even when there is trouble in the system , When any abnormality is detected by the self-diagnosis function , running capability is maintained by pre-programmed values in the simulated program map . When any abnormality is detected in the injector and/or CKP sensor , the fail-safe function stops the engine to protect it from damage
That is about all i can really find to do with a fuse or even a reset breaker setup , and it does not really say anything about the bike not starting at all , it says basically if the bike starts and it finds a issue it shuts it down , but he is not getting any running at , and I found nothing but a crapload of sensors running/controlling the system and all sorts of specialty Honda electrical and line pressure "tools" to test the complete system , according to what i read , the light on the map button/kill switch is supposed to blink a error code (which is why i asked him if it was blinking or anything) , but if its not lighting up for him , the only recourse is to either buy the needed tools to test each sensor and the pump voltage and pressure , or go to the Honda Dealer whom "should" have the proper test equipment
I could post pages of info from the Service Manual on the testing procedures , but it will do no good unless he has the test equipment required to go along with the directions ...that is the crappy thing about EFI bikes , it requires a whole new tool box just for that stuff , I don't mess with them enough to justify buying all the tools , unless at some point I end up buying a CRF450R/X .... , generally I work on early up to 08 at the newest for CRF's , unless its suspension stuff or lacing wheels or rebuilding engines or something , same goes for the other brands , the newest KTM i have messed with (suspension and other repairs) is a 2011 , so it had a carb (last year of carb KTM's) , so I am about as in the dark on the EFI stuff as you are , its kind of like working on modern cars , unless you have specialty and specific diagnostic meters and code readers , your just guessing , and from what i gathered in the Service Manual , there are about 15 "specialty" tools needed to diagnose and test just the fuel system
