Here I sit broken hearted, had a 749 1 year and 51 weeks and now can't get it started! How's that for poetry?
2 days before Xmas, my car failed it's MOT and I got rusty bits in my eyes trying to fix it. 1 day before Xmas, I caught flu symptons.
Xmas eve, whilst still feeling rubbish I decided to give the bike a bit of a wash. That's the last time the engine would start.
The fuel pump made a half hearted attempt when the ignition was switched on, and the starter would turn the engine over, but the engine management light came on. I would assume it's been caused by the wash but over the next few days I took all the block connectors apart and cleaned them, even including the ecu connectors and the small relay behind the battery, all to no avail. At least it has it's final week of warranty and yesterday had a nice ride on the back of an AA truck to Ducati Leeds. I love the bike and didn't plan on selling in the near future but this does worry me as regards future reliablilty. Anyone else had much grief with washing these things?
