Fault codes on Thundermax
While loading my map, when I get to the page that says "clear fault codes", I clear them, but right away two of them re-appear and the seconds start to count up. They're for the front and rear cylinder and say "EGO". Any ideas?

I have an 07 SG with Tmax and after I cleared the codes initially it showed 0 codes. After a yearI still have no codes when I check.I would call Zippersbecause I don't think you should be showing any codes after clearing them unless something is wrong and needs to be addressed.

Thanks Cglide. It seems to me when I first installed it all the codes read zero and stayed there. I'll Call bart tomorrow and see if he can walk me through this. Everything seemed fine until I did the firmwear update.

If you updated to the 4.5-4.6 Firmware, I believe this is the cause. I stayed with v4.4 and never had the problem, but like Karl said, don't worry about it Zippers is probably on it with a fix in the future.

RE: Fault codes on Thundermax
Thanks for the tips guys. I'll re-load everything tomorrow. Gonna start fresh. For some reason, after I upgraded the firmware, the bike didn't seem to run as good. Pulled the plugs and they're kinda on the white side. Also had some pinging under hard throttle. Somethin just doesn't seem right. It seemed to run better before the firmware upgrade[>:]

I ran 4.4 up until I sold my TMax, which was this week, and I NEVER had a problem with ANYTHING. Sometimes fixing it till it breaks ain't good.
EDIT: Truth be known if you get an "EGO" fault code you should consult Sigmund Freud. He's the paint chip eater that came up with the wacked explanation for that.
