i have a friend with a 07 750i that is in limp mode and need to find out how to reset it.

thanks for the help

 

Have you reset the switch inside the belt housing?

 

no im not sure how to do any of it. i was hoping someone could give me the basic outline before i stated to do anything to the bike

 

My uncle has a 02 660 prairie and when that happened you have to remove the belt cover. inside the cover is a switch and the KEBC. flip the switch to the other side. I can't remember if it is on or off. Just remember which way it was when you removed the cover.

 

Hey coolhandnts: I have a Twin Peaks, it is a Kawi made Suzuki, it is basically the same proceedure.

Turn OFF the ignition, You may or may not have to remove the air duct boot on the torque converter cover, (a black rubber boot located on the right hand side of the bike), it has a clamp on top and bottom. I'm not sure how your setup is. You should be able to get at the plugs without removing the boot. You will come to that later.
1) Look up under by the fuel shut off, and you will see two 4-pin connectors (plugs), one black and one gray.
2) Disconnect both sets of 4-pin connectors, and reconnect them to their opposite connectors. Black to Gray & Gray to Black. You should be able bend back 2 tabs holding the wires up, to have easy access to the connectors. You can than bring the connectors out to you.
3) Turn ON the ignition
4) Disconnect the Belt Switch at the 2-pin connector. This is where the rubber air duct boot may have to be removed.
On the top of the torque converter cover (the black plastic sidecase on the right hand side, where the rubber boot is.) there is a black box with 2 wires coming out of the top. Follow these 2 wires with your hand until you come to the 2-pin connector. If you can access the connector without removing the boot then do so, if not you will have to remove th boot.
5) Observe the belt check indicator light, it should be flashing.
Let it flash for at least 5 seconds, more than 5 seconds is ok.
Turn OFF the ignition.
(I have to do step #5 twice, but I think you only have to do it once.) Try step #5 once and if it doesn't reset, then repeat steps 2-4 and then do step #5 twice
6) Reconnect the 2-pin connector.
7) disconnect the mismatched 4-pin connectors (Black to gray & Gray to Black), and connect them normally(black to black and gray to gray).
8) Turn ON ignition. Confirm that no belt check indicator light is flashing. Put the connectors back and bend the clamps.
9) Replace air duct boot, if it had to be removed.

It is a simple proceedure.

Good Luck.

 

Don't just reset the belt light WITHOUT checking the CVT system. There is a reason why the light came on.
