Well I have not rode my X1 since last fall when the head gasket started leaking. I finally got the time to replace the gasket. Took the bike out for the first spin of the season yesterday. First part of the trip was about 7 miles and the bike ran decent. Stopped at my parents and the bike sat for about an hour. The rest of the trip was about 10 miles and half way through the bike started to run rought. It would die at every stop sign and pulling up the hill started backfiring. When I got home i checked the codes and it gave me the following.

code 11 -TPS short to ground
code 15 -IAS short to supply
code 33 -fuel pump short
code 44 BAS short

I loaded a few different programs using ecmspy along with my factory and also did TPS resets. Took the bike for another ride. I have a 150ft long driveway and when i get to the end of it everytime the bike dies. I went down the street today and seemed to be running fine and 1/2 it started breaking up bad and not wanting to run. Ended up pushing it home since it was backfiring so bad and wouldnt go more then 5 mph. Now i am getting a Code 32 - rear fuel injector.

I have done all the tests in the book for the BAS and rear injector. I am at a loss at the moment. Anyone have any issues like this?

thanks for any input or ideas---

Check your ground and battery?

FIXED- Last spring my side stand sensor died so I cut the wires and soldered them together on the plug and plugged it back in. Guess the connections on the plug were loose and as i rode it would keep rattling and killing the fuel pump for a second here and there. I put a brand new battery in the bike this morning from my dads harley and cleaned the ground. Went for a ride and sure enough the bike died on me again. After sitting on the side of the road for ten mins wiggling wires... everything i moved the plug the fuel pump would cycle on and off and the relays under the seat would go crazy. Pushed the plug up against the frame and the bike started up and rode fine home. Ended up cutting the entire plug out and just soldering the wires together. Bike runs GREAT now!!! and its not throwing anymore codes. Just put 20 miles on it.

It is amazing to see how the side stand switch could drive the bike so crazy, throwing codes left and right. A bad battery tends to create similar havoc.
Glad you got it fixed.
