d-peach-13 Posted April 23, 2015 Author Share Posted April 23, 2015 What you talking about. Im on an app and didnt know how to use it. Jesus. Ask for help and get idiots Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator DirtyDT Posted April 23, 2015 Moderator Share Posted April 23, 2015 You have posted the same question in several sections of the forum. Whether you meant to or not is irrelevant. This causes people to not know which one to reply to, if they can help. This forum tends to be very friendly but there will be some questions that people will not be able to answer and these tend to get limited, or no, replies. That said, calling people "idiots" isn't really conducive to getting people to try and help out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ttaskmaster Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 What you talking about. Im on an app and didnt know how to use it. Jesus. Ask for help and get idiots So you posted this very question on the 16th April (a whole 7 days ago) right here: You already got quite a comprehensive answer and FOR FREE, I should point out, since a garage will charge you anything up to £50 and possibly more just for reading the fault code! So having gotten the help you needed and more, despite not even bothering to show a bit of common courtesy by posting an Intro in the relevant setion, you then decide to re-ask the same question... and you want to talk about who is an idiot??!! The flashes are a Fault 19 code, which is the sidestand switch. Clean it, lube it, replace it, bypass it or whatever you want. When you're done doing that, grow up and learn some manners... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slice Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 I'm sorry my answer was not what you wanted and also apologise for not answering sooner, yes I know you wanted the answer day's ago and were in such a hurry that you posted several times in the hopes that someone would be kind enough to help you out without the bother of charging you for the service or the time taken to answer your urgent query. So if my apology is accepted and you feel we are worthy of your further attention please feel free to ask any questions that you feel are relevant to your motorcycle/scooter and we will do our best to get the answer as soon as possible realising that your time is precious and not to be wasted by idiots who don't know who they are dealing with. having said that it's usually polite to say hello before you ask a complete stranger for advice if for no other reason than they might just tell you to "f**k off". Not that we would do that because we understand that your enquiry is more important than anyone else's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderator Airhead Posted April 23, 2015 Moderator Share Posted April 23, 2015 yeah so anyway, what of the answer you were given ages ago...the one Ttaskmaster referred to? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderator Airhead Posted April 23, 2015 Moderator Share Posted April 23, 2015 why not test it with a multimeter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderator Airhead Posted April 23, 2015 Moderator Share Posted April 23, 2015 not being funny but I think you should get someone to look at this bike, it may be the switch it may not but if no use just replacing things you don't know are broken, lots of people have multimeters...BORROW ONE!

KirriePete Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 I dont have a multimeter They're not expensive - a quick Google for multimeter throws up loads for under a tenner - don't bother with a wobbly needle analogue one, just go digital from the outset. If you're gonna be looking after your own bike(s) you will need one of these sooner or later, so you might as well bite the bullet now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d-peach-13 Posted April 23, 2015 Author Share Posted April 23, 2015 Thank you both very much. I will order one and check it out or get it looked at. Thanks again for the help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KirriePete Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 Having said get a multimeter, you can test the switch with a battery, a bulb and some wire, like so: battery(+)---switch---bulb---battery(-) Operate the switch, if the bulb is off it should go on, and vice versa. But get a multimeter anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slice Posted April 24, 2015 Share Posted April 24, 2015 Ok enough fun and games, your very welcome and I hope you stick around and enjoy this site as much as the rest of us, a very warm welcome to the YOC PS we are sometimes a merciless bunch of sarcastic bastards and we do take the piss out of each other but it's never meant with malice or the desire to hurt.
