Did you get a diagnosis on the Tmax DX?
Steve
Not yet, the dealer promised to get back to me tomorrow. Its been in for over a week. No fault codes.
I suspect software problems. Keyless system?
Will keep you updated.
Ok, so long talk with dealer (Service Manager).
No progress, or little, it now starts every now and then, but sometimes it's dead. They have removed the engine from all electrics and running 'on the bench' it starts and works flawlessly but plugged into the on-board electronics it's sometimes dead.
They see no fault codes. Everything measures Ok they say, but they have no idea what it is.
Of course, I'm not happy, 1,5week later and no progress, commuting by car to work
I do however have some understanding, 'old motorcycle mechanics' are now facing a flood of on-board computers/connectivity. What if there is a bug in the software on Yamahas servers, and sometimes it disables (theft protection) the engine without showing it stolen status.... or whatever, but it sounds very much like a computer problem to me, not 'some dirt in the 2nd cylinder'
Well well, what I do wonder, Yamahas warranty, how long can it be there before I can ask Yamaha to hand me a new Tmax??? 1 month? 3 weeks? or can it be at the dealer all summer without them having to compensate me?
