Hey, Tory, I don't have my manual handy at the moment but in automotive circles that indicates a condition that could harm the catalytic converter. Usually a misfire. If no one else chimes in I will be able to post chapter and verse later....

Hi Tory, your oxigen sensor heater is open circuit, code 23;

Have a look if the wiring is damaged on the oxigen sensor and the connector is in place.


PCM codes and their meaning
PCM DTCs:

1 - manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensor (1-1=low voltage, 1-2=high voltage)
7 - engine coolant temperature (ECT) sensor (7-1=low voltage, 7-2=high voltage)
8 - throttle position (TP) sensor (8-1=low voltage, 8-2=high voltage)
9 - intake air temperature (IAT) sensor (9-1=low voltage, 9-2=high voltage)
11 - vehicle speed (VS) sensor (11-1=VS malfunction, intermittent connection etc)
12 - #1 (left) fuel injector (12-1=FI malfunction, intermittent connection etc)
13 - #2 (right) fuel injector (13-1=FI malfunction, intermittent connection etc)
21 - oxygen (O2) sensor (21-1=O2S malfunction, intermittent connection etc)
23 - oxygen (O2) heater (23-1=O2 heater malfunction, intermittent connection etc)
29 - IACV (idle air control valve (29-1=IACV malfunction, intermittent connection etc)
54 - BA (bank angle) sensor (54-1=low voltage, 54-2=high voltage)
86 - serial communications (PCM to cluster) (86-1=communications error, bad power to cluster)

If the bike drives normally it may be a good time to install an o2 sensor eliminator, have a look at these links;

Tory Note that the eliminator will not work on 2017 models, only on earlier ones.

Personally i have installed a 330 ohm resistor and it works fine on my 2010 cb1100.

Great post Max, and saved me some work I just got the manual out and then saw your post.

My prediction. He put on an aftermarket exhaust and no O2 sensor. I could be wrong...

Max, excellent/professional job!!

Max, excellent/professional job!!

So 2 blinks = 2 and three blinks = 3
code is 23...cool, learned something
new about my bike today... I think in the
recesses of my mind I know blinks are
code, but I never seem to remember in the
moment and I just think “huh?, its blinking!”

 

[Cormanus]

Very helpful information, max, and even better now I know how you arrived at 23.

Is there a difference between 23 and 23-1. If so, how is it signalled?

 

[max]

Tory glad it is fixed, what was the repair? we would like to know

Cormanus i was hoping houtman would chime in and cleared this up because the1 and 2 stands for two different faults.
i guess it is another short flash after the 23 code but i have not seen any example of this, i wondered the same thing.

 

[Lord Popgun]

IIRC the sub codes don’t flash. Need a code reader for those. I’ll check the manual in a while to be sure. Its too early now. Need coffee

 

[Cormanus]

I was forced to the service manual. The MIL blink system has no capacity to display the sub code. You need a proper tester apparently.

Yet again, Lord Popgun correct is.

A mechanic at my local dealer checked the error code on my 2017 but I did not hear about the code number . The check engine light was blinking because I had installed a o2 sensor eliminator on my 2017.
Running perfect after removing the eliminator and resetting the code.

Should feel blessed that Honda would even be generous enough to flash anything at the owner. Pretty fair.

Some other manufacturers hide the code behind a technician's passphrase on the instrument cluster.

I noticed similar functionality when correcting the ECU on my Monkey for altitude. Going through the diagnostics requires an "SCS Service Connector" jumper on the DLC (Data Link Connector), but once in place, it's easy to observe the different settings on the MIL as you cycle through. It's not unlike reading morse code. It'd be difficult to know what the codes meant without access to the service manual.

Interesting topic! On my Moto Guzzi Griso the dash display can give the error code # (if there is any) after the service code (which is not a secret) is entered. I now realise that this is not as easy for the CB1100.
Also, for Moto Guzzis there exists a diagnostic software program called "Guzzidiag". You can connect your laptop runnning Guzzidiag to the bike and you can then diagnose (and change) more than you ever wanted. A very handy piece of software. Is there an equivalent sofware for Hondas?

Hey ... that sounds pretty awesome.

Is the connection physical or wireless?

 

[LongRanger_imp]

I have similar functionality for my BMW's, but it's wireless through my cell phone. It allows you to scan and reset fault codes, update service reminders, monitor engine parameters, test sensors, cycle the ABS pump when flushing the brakes, etc.

 

[Lord Popgun]

Run it in LR, rub it in

I have to hook up my Healtech code reader and connect it to a PC. I wonder if they could make one that worked on Bluetooth to a phone. Hummm, might have to email them that request.

...and you will wait for your answer forever, from Honda, I meant

Man. That is just incredibly sweet.

Makes me want to hack the CB1100. Csory? Wad you think?
