Yep, kinda sounds exactly like my problem i had when it first started, it slowly progressed getting worse and worse.

Well, nice to hear :evil:

Your only solution was fix the conection between STPS and ECM?

ACtually, if you look at my last post b4 u posted, you'll see what ''solution'' i found, basicly take it all apart, put it all back together, and it works fine... go figure lol, so far, been well over a month without anymore issues.

Thank you - you saved my day. Same problem, same fix - took it apart and back together again and no FI light...

Spray on electrical switch/connector cleaner works well on the connections and is not expensive,
Radio Shack would most likely have it, in the UK and most likely the US you can get software for
a laptop that with a lead plugs into the OBD connector on the scooter and will read and cancel
the error codes as well as letting you see the live data from the sensors, but it works out from
the UK at about $220 maybe a little less as you should be able to claim the VAT back.

The issue is more mechanical than electrical. Something inside of the STVA is sticking/jamming, thus making it not cycle properly. As far as the OBD connector, well, this bike does not have such a beast.

And ironicly enough, almost 1 year to the date, the darn light came back on, same problem. Just gotta take it apart, and slap back together, will prolly work just like before, but dangit its a pain to get the throttle body out.

OK not not a OBD but the bike does have a connector to connect diagnostic equipment , at least my 2010 one does
reading the post I was under the impression that it was the connector making a bad connection rather than the
STVA sticking, things like this are a pain in the back side, you take it to bits and it works fine but your never
sure you fixed it.

Make sure you Guys Clean the throttle body Ateast once every 2 or 3 Years! Oil Build up can Block the Air Vacuum Ports that inside, and Builds up on the Walls of the throttle body, :thumbup:

I used to have a Quick Flash of the the FI when i first started it only came on for a 2 Miliseconds But after Cleaning the throttle body it Stoped!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
