Well I just got the pleasure of my low fuel light dyin on me. I know its a common problem, but my warranty just expired like a month ago. So I was wondering if anyone knows whats all involved in fixing it. If its not too hard ill do it myself, and if it is hard....well, ill just live with it LOL. Im too air-headed to set the trip every time I fill up so id like to have it fixed. |

I did a quick search since you said this was a common problem...I really couldn't turn up much useful info. Are you sure it's common? Is it normally a sensor or an instrument cluster problem? ac |

Im not sure, but im pretty sure its a common problem among the 08s. Ive heard a lot of guys have it happen. I did a search also and found not a whole lot, thats why I thought id ask. |

2 year warranty is still good. I have until the middle of December and I got one of the first ones off the line. It could be the bulb, more likely an LED. It could be the IC, that's where the logic lives. It could be the sensor. It could be any of the wires in the system Two "common problems" that really aren't that widespread are: 1) LFL comes on intermittently during riding - bad sensor or software bug fixed with 04Z flash. 2) LFL & CEL come on with a DTC of B1005 at start-up or re-start in cold weather - unsure of fix.

Check the fuel pressure in diagnostic mode. Could also be a bad fuel pump or fuel rail. |
