Ok here I go, I'll try not to ramble on.
I had an 09 c14, so I know how the keypads work, but this 2012 I just bought does not click on all the time when pressing the key. sometimes it works, sometimes you have to press several times, sometimes you have to wiggle the key to get it to click on. We'll..., I went on a overnight ride this pass weekend, and as I head out I notice gas gauge showing only 1 bar left after only 80 miles on tank, so I stop to fill up, and gas gauge moves up almost to top, but then goes back down to last bar. So I figure something is wrong with gas gauge, but then as I'm leaving the gas station, my (no transponder) warning comes on. So I stop thinking I left it on top of tank bag and if fell off. We'll it was in the tank bag, so not sure what to think. I shut bike off and restart it and and everything is fine, (except gas gauge). We'll continue on to hotel, next morning I start the bike, and the traction control error comes up!! After riding for a bit, error goes off, but gas gauge still not working.
Dropped off at shop tues, and they are putting new fuel rail (I think that's what they said) in it, but didn't find anything else wrong with it. They told me most people don't hold key down long enough to activate it, to be able to turn key. Then it assured him I knew how to use the keypads as I owned a 09 for two years with no problems.
Does anybody have any thoughts on what might be going on? I have installed (hard wired) my gps/radar detector on it, but spliced it from the accessory plug, and did it right, soldered everything! just like I had it on my 09.
