CB1100 Idle speed instability problem

[johnf514_imp]

popgun, Cormanus, curlyjoe, happy to comment further. The bike was fixed in Nov 2016, and I've got emails detailing the dealership's correspondence with Honda. I removed sensitive details where appropriate:

Jimmy @ Honda Central Florida Powersports, 11/8
We actually opted to not reset the ecu untill after the new IAC ( Idle air control) installation. Once the new valve was installed we started the bike to let it relearn the parameters, and idle went perfectly back to 1100 rpm. after a few other diagnostics we then reset the ecm again, So the new IAC did solve the problem.

we have some data logged from when the idle is normal & high, once we replace the Idle air control solenoid, well do it again,

Thanks Jim. I'll want to see the testing documentation on how the IACV motor was determined to be the sole source of fault . I'll also want to walk through how the bike was tested after the new motor is installed & make sure an ECU reset (if one is necessary) didn't mask the high idle issue again.


I just want to make sure this is the last time this condition comes about. Thank you.


Regards,
John

We have a idle air control motor on order.
