No, I am definitely not expecting the dealer to sorr out the cold start or stalling issues. I just want the fault codes and check engine light checked and cleared. Its under warranty, so I was afraid to dig into it to much. The fuse that is blowing is the 7.5 amp O2 heater fuse in the center at 2nd from top. My turn signals also quit working when the fault codes came up. It won't start either. I will let them take a shot at it with the warranty before its gone in March. I never ever take my bike to a dealer. But with this bike I have started to give up. So I am using my warranty while I have it still. Who knows where I go from there.^^
Your last diminishing hopes are about to disappear altogether if you're expecting the dealership alone to sort out the running and cold start issues? You may as well save yourself five weeks wait and subsequent disappointment and knock it on now. Take the hit and you could be on a less irksome steed by this time next week if not before? The fuse blowing is easily sorted with the correct approach and someone with a multimeter that knows how to use it. Short circuits are the easiest to locate.
What fuse is it that is blowing the lower O2 sensor heater 7.5 amp one of the two at the top middle? At a very quick glance there appears to be two fitted on the bike, each one is mounted in the headers adjacent to the heat-shields on the exhausts, one may be shorting to ground? I would carry out a insulation/resistance check on both and compare values/findings to see if one is shorting to ground as a start. If that is beyond you, you could also try disconnecting each one in turn and turning on the ignition to see if the fuse blows? Bearing in mind being a CanBus bike disconnecting it will likely throw up more codes and you may blow a few fuses carrying out this procedure trying to track the culprit down? If the dealership's already got it do yourself a favor and go bike hunting, after all you do have a little spare time on your hands whilst you sit out the 5 weeks.
