F1 Code flashing What's this mean?

I just took my tank off and checked my TB boots for snugness and put the tank back on and fired the bike up. Now it's intermittently flashing F1 and back to the clock and back and forth. What did I do???



Ok I'm a dummy! I figured it out.

Sorry.

Figured code out.

Ok, thanks so much Greywolf for taking the time to help, but I figured out that I had forgotten to re-attach the plug to my air box. Hooked it back up and error gone. Do I need to still take it in to service, or am I alright?

Thanks again,

Scott

You're fine. Turning off the bike resets minor error codes. If it doesn't come back, you fixed it.

I check the FI codes before I started the bike up yesterday. Had a FI code, looked at my service manual. Found the plug I didn't connect plugged it in and wa la, back in business.

Imagine if it was the old days and there wasn't a way to read the code? Or if there wasn't a code at all? Imagine how much of a PITA it would be to find the error!

Sure is nice to have this site for help, and share info. :wink2:
