HELP! META M357T-V2

[gixersix]

Hi, all you FOC-cers


I've had what I thought was the well-documented problem, with my META M357T-V2 (NOT V2-1) internal battery dying.


I've seen all the previous posts plus similar ones from other forums.


Wanting to remove the immobiliser temporarily, I've tried to pin-out the plug(s) with paper clips.
as per photo found elsewhere on here (attached for reference).


The starter motor is now turning over, but the bike is making no attempt to fire.


Seems like the ECU pin-out isn't working.[size=78%]


I've seen on other forums (and our own FZ6) that there are different pin-outs for different bikes - is it possible I've got the wrong 2 connections for mine? 2004 FZS1000 (Mk1) by the way.


Sorry for the urgency but the bike is my only form of transport here at the moment - my other bikes have now been put up for winter and are in fact parked 170 miles away. Oh and I'm booked on a Welsh riding weekend THIS weekend. DOH![/size]

PS - also, I've found a magnet (for a reed switch) which was glued to my seat, and the matching switch fastened inside the frame.
What does this do? I assumed it put the alarm in "service" mode. Coincidentally, the magnet had fallen off the seat but for the time being, I
have taped it to the reed switch, so it thinks the seat is in place.

Thanks, in anticipation. Dave
