Datatool System 3 - Help!

[Roy748Bip]

Hi,

When I disarm my Datatool System 3 and switch the ignition on the fuel pump doesn’t prime and when I put the alarm into service mode it gives me a 3 bleep warning which indicates ignition tampering or hotwiring.

Can anyone tell me if a bike fault could trigger the immobiliser or is the datatool is at fault?

Thanks.

Oh as the name suggests its a 748 Bi-posto. 1995.

Could be one of the internal relays is sticking???
Try tapping the control unit, lightly...............with the most technical looking tapping instrument you have to hand :)
Tfuel pump relay could also be playing up??

Have you checked the alarm fuse?

Hmm, I went out to the garage with the intention of tapping the relays with the most technical looking bashing implement I could find (15mill spanner) but thought “I’ll just try it before I start” guess what....the fuel pump primed. An intermittent electrical problem, great.

I hate electrickery. At least with a muldered bit metal you know where you stand. Suppose I’ll just have to clean all the connections I can find and hope for the best.

I cant' find the alam fuse, which is a bit worrying! I didn't have the system 3 fitted...but i think i might be removing it......:flame:

If you have the installation certificate it will be detailed on there.
Common place is near the fuse block under the RHS panel.
Worth knowing in case it does blow.
