Alright folks,

My thundercat came fitted with a YM4 smartlock immobiliser (the one with the ring around the ignition with a little red light and an orange wire....), which has been fine til now has started cutting out my ignition while riding! its only happened a few times, and when it does the fob just needs to be nudged to deactivate it again but its a bit unnerving, if it happened during an overtake i'd be toast.

Any ideas? dodgy contact? from looking at the instructions it looks like all the joints have been wrapped with heat shrinking stuff, so is it a dealer job?

any help would be much appreciated.

Ta.

Tom.

Immobiliser fault most likely.

Most common cause is water ingress. Have you been riding in severe rain lately or used a pressure washer on the bike?
